How we got here
Inconspicuous Business grew out of a shared love of improvisation and experience using it in professional settings.
While working in management consulting, our founder Sarah began using improvisation to deliver workshops for leadership teams. She saw how useful the skills she had developed on stage could be in the workplace, and eventually left consulting to build Inconspicuous.
Today, we bring our experience in business and performance into workshops shaped around the situations people face at work, from preparing presentations to navigating team dynamics.
Why improvisation?
The skills that make improvisation work are surprisingly familiar. Listening to people, building on their ideas, adapting when things change and working together are all part of everyday working life.
We believe people learn these skills by practising them. Improvisation gives people a playful environment where they can experiment, make mistakes and find out what works for them, without worrying about being judged.
We also work with situations people bring from their jobs. That might mean practising a presentation they are preparing or exploring how they respond to the dynamics within their own team. The exercises give people something concrete to work with and talk about afterwards.
Who you'll be working with.
Sarah has been performing since she was four. She has an MSc in AI and a background in management consulting, where she used improvisation to deliver workshops for leadership teams. She went on to found Inconspicuous, bringing together her experience in industry with years of performing and teaching improvisation.
Adrian has spent more than 20 years working with writing, storytelling and corporate communications. His experience includes working as Head Writer at Comedy Central. He brings that background, along with his experience as a performer, to workshops on how people communicate and get their ideas across.
