Why Participate?

As a leader of your team or your department, you feel the pressure of today’s uncertainty on your shoulders. You want to re-discover yourself and find the inner strength to stay in harmony whatever the future will be.

Your people want their leader to make them feel safe, comfortable and optimistic. They want to be part of a team driven by a strong purpose and a high sense of happiness.

How can you achieve this?

It all starts with you. Overcoming negativity, handling stress, and finding your emotional balance is what we will help you achieve through Happynings.

In this highly interactive, experiential and truly “unconventional” workshop, you will be led by the artistic genius of Rupesh Tillu to let loose of your inner selves with confidence, interact with other leaders, and discover the healing power of laughter.

We will make sure this experience stays after the workshop and you will make it your second nature to apply the tools you will learn with your people, so that they all feel happy and engaged.

Laughing is healing!

Workshop Overview


Laughter is a tool: Imagine a world full of people who can think but cannot feel. Can we possibly dismiss emotions in the workplace? Emotions are essential in decision-making and growth. It is our ability to touch, to feel, to connect and to share that makes us creative, innovative and effective in our daily lives. IQ drives profits, EQ drives sustained growth. As human beings, we experience a whole range of emotions in a day and to “Always Be Happy” doesn’t only sound ridiculous, it sounds like a lot of work!

Laughing is healing: Laughter is the best pill to not only put you at ease but also the glue that can bind your organization. Our brain is programmed to look at a mistake as imminent danger. A harsh, punitive work environment triggers the same neurological responses as threat, sending the body into flight, fight or freeze responses. Human error can be minimized and transparency in work environment built through better stress management and more laughter!

What we do: In a comprehensive, hands-on, 12-hour workshop, comprising 5 laughter-based themes, we will help you manage stress effectively, build high-performing teams and a healthier work culture. Using participative theatrical exercises, you will have the opportunity to re-discover yourselves through laughter and humor and find out that you can go as far as you wish, with optimism and a growth mindset.

Laughing is healing!

The workshop

1. Celebrating the Human (2 hours): You will be taken through a series of physical exercises that will enable you to identify the sources of stress, address it and release it in a constructive way.

Once we take ownership of our actions, the brain activates neural paths for a more solution-oriented approach. It helps us see transitory events for exactly what they are instead of a looming threat.

Objectives:

Identify and reduce stress & fear

Find creative solutions by celebrating mistakes through laughter

Take ownership to transform and re-discover yourselves

2. Monkey See-Monkey Do (2 hours): Our brain’s frontal lobe is the sign of a fully developed brain. It is also responsible for evolved intelligence in the human species-empathy through mirroring or Mirror Neurons.

The entire learning process is built upon this concept. It is imperative to maintain a balanced environment to spark ease and productivity over stress and negative impulses.

Objectives:

Identify and understand behavioral patterns

Actively ‘break the chain’ of negativity through laughter

Enhance productivity in a stable environment

3.   Here and Now (2 hours): The present is a present because it is a gift. It is the most meditative state of being. Anxiety is a product of being pulled between past experiences and future worries. 

We will take you to a theatrical journey to show you the importance of living in the moment by shedding the baggage we subconsciously and consciously carry.

Objectives:

Shed the load and be more present to change

Focus better and appreciate your friends, family and co-workers

Laughter can immediately help you focus in the here & now

4. Non-threatening Communication (2 hours): Often, unaddressed stress can lead to ineffective communication, sometimes even to a communication breakdown. Passive aggressive behavior, losing control of the words we use, blame game and foul mouthing in a work environment, all of these can be result from increased stress. 

You will reflect upon your communication patterns and learn new theatre-based tools for improved exchanges. Laughter can be a beautifully disarming tool, especially in high conflict situations.

Objectives: 

Bridge the gap between employer and employee

Conflict resolution

Build spaces where ideas can flow

Bring positive energy in the workspace

5. Smallest Mask to Unmask (4 hours): How many masks are we wearing in our lives? We walk in the world behind masks of an employee, a boss, a parent, a partner, but we mostly remain a mystery to ourselves.

What if we offered you the tiniest mask in the world- a red nose- to unmask the real YOU?

Let’s explore the joy of your inner self through laughter, through being silly. By letting your inner fool out, you lower your guards and let people in, re-evaluate your place in your organization and society, allowing yourself to be brave and not carry the baggage of stress.

Objectives:


Reconnect with your creative energies

Recognize and manage your sense of self

Boost self-confidence and create lasting memories

Laughing is healing!
