S3 Episode 39: Coaching and Improv with Pippa Evans

Improv Your Life is one of the top 3 coaching books we recommend because it gets into not knowing - and it’s SIMPLE. Pippa Evans has done something huge for the coaching profession without knowing it. We talk about offering something to another person to do with what they will; being in relation to another without losing yourself. And don’t judge a scene until it’s finished - or you have checked out before the end.

 

A great resource for coaches. And you will make your own meaning from what you hear. 

 

Takeaways

• Improv can teach us about accepting where we are, building on ideas, and listening to ourselves and others in a complex world.
• Making offers in improv is about giving something tangible or energetic to others to build upon.
• Don't judge a scene or conversation until it's finished; focus on being present and listening.
• Failure in improv doesn't have to be a big mistake; it's an opportunity to learn and grow.
• Improvisation can be a valuable tool for coaches to enhance their presence and spontaneity.
