Improv and leadership (communication lubricant)

Day 3 of NGLA was a success, so successful that I fell asleep last night before writing a blog post. During the last session of day 3 I learned a lot about improv and leadership which the speaker called "communication lubricant". In order for improv to be successful you must build trust and teamwork amongst your sisterhood and in my case the executive terms as well. The use of improv helps to create less "emergencies" and creates a more comfortable "unknown".  Giving support to my sisters involves listening, and moving away from the concept of doing things the way we have always done it. To be supportive or your sisters you must take their problem solving ideas and put them to use. Good leaders ask questions in the right way, getting the most out of their members. The most important lesson I learned was to Commit to things and don't Comment, when action needs to be taken we must challenge our sisters to achieve more.
