When was the last time you got on a stage and did improv? If you’re like most people, the answer is probably never. After all, improv is scary, right? To be on a stage, with no script, no direction, and no answers? But what if improv were actually exactly what you needed to sharpen your sales skills? What if the answer to every salesperson who lacked confidence, or had trouble initiating a conversation, were to be prescribed improv? On a recent episode of the Sales Engagement Podcast, we sat down to chat with Bridget Quigg, who is the founder of “You’re a Genius,” a workshop that teaches sales and career skills through the fast paced world of improv comedy.
