Improv for Start-ups

The research is in, and neuroscience has conclusively determined that—when it comes to learning, growth, and change—the human brain is elastic for its lifetime. One’s facility to develop and grow over time is limited only by exposure to novel experiences. And there’s the rub. We’re rewarded, both internally and externally, for repeatedly instantiating what we know and do well.

The way out is to flex your brain, experience the new, take a risk, and walk through the fear. Improvisation pulls you out of your well-entrenched views and systems, and opens you up to see things in a new way.

Innovation is created when the germ of an idea is given space and room to breathe—before deciding it can’t work according to what you know.
