Corporate Training / Adaptability & Problem-Solving Under Pressure
Adaptability & Problem-Solving Under Pressure Workshop
A corporate improv workshop in San Diego, part of Improv San Diego's corporate improv training programs, led by corporate trainer Patrick McInnis.
The problem this solves
Teams that freeze or fumble when a plan changes at the last minute. People who need everything mapped out in advance. Meetings that derail the moment an unexpected question comes up.
What participants actually do
- Improv games where the rules and constraints keep shifting mid-scene
- Exercises where an unexpected “curveball” has to be absorbed and built into the scene, not avoided
- Quick-decision games run under light time pressure to build reps, not just theory
Skills your team builds
- Real comfort with ambiguity, not just talking about it
- Faster recovery when something unexpected happens
- Calmer decision-making under mild pressure
- Treating a changed plan as normal instead of a crisis
Who it's for
Teams navigating a reorg or fast growth, project teams working with shifting requirements, and leaders who want to model composure for the people they manage.
