Comedy for Business Communication

Earlier this month, I went to an Improv Comedy Class at DSI in Chapel Hill, NC. It was a workshop put on by the wonderful Raleigh Jaycees to give its members skills on how to best communicate in a work situation. Although I do not hold a big business, presentation-filled type job, I think that being able to communicate is very important no matter what job you have. It was so much fun! The biggest take-away I had was how to handle a situation where someone proposes an idea that you might, or might not, agree with. Always say "yes" and immediately affirm what they believe in. Then, you can give your opinion. Staying away from the word "but" was hard. I really think this will help me in the future!
