Be ready to interact with our featured speaker, Nathan Minns, and your fellow participants.

Please arrive at 11:30 am. Eat. Mingle. Make new friends.

When things change quickly, it’s easy to get overwhelmed!

But through this keynote, you’ll learn to navigate life’s unexpected turns with the agility and creativity of an improviser with the “Yes, And…” mindset.

You’ll explore how to stay flexible and positive when plans go awry and how to keep an open mind to new possibilities. This isn’t just about coping with change; it’s about thriving in it with a growth mindset and the “build, measure, learn” feedback cycle.

In this story-rich TIGER Talk, we’ll also introduce a decision-making model inspired by “Yes And,” helping you make clearer, more focused choices without feeling lost of overwhelmed. You’ll leave knowing how to work better with others, use everyone’s ideas, and turn confusion into clear, positive action. Discover the ease of the unexpected when you think like an improviser.
