The story will be based on a proven Improv technique called the Story Spine. The Story Spine is an idea/tool about the spine of any story. The whole point of the tool is to provide a framework for a well-constructed story with a beginning that establishes a routine, an event that breaks the routine, a middle that shows the consequences of having broken the routine, a climax that sets the resolution to the story in motion, and the resolution. It goes like this:
Once upon a time….
Everyday….
But one day….
Because of that…
Because of that…
Because of that….
Until finally…
And ever since then….
The moral of this story is…
Participants will build a story about a client crisis and use the company’s core values to resolve the issue.
Why Improv Storytelling?
Improv, more than most potential team-building activities, embodies the spirit of core values. It can only be successful if there is collaboration and trust. The storytellers have to make decisions with conviction to move the story forward. Each of the Improv participants has to relentlessly read the cues of their teammates, and demonstrate flexibility by being willing to shift their perspective to come to a successful conclusion.
