Rational Madness offers a wide range of short courses and learning programmes, either standalone, or integrated with our theatre performances.
Our short courses do not follow traditional “didactic” methods of teaching. We are very interactive and the aim is to support lasting change and improvement “back at base”
We see a close relationship between excellent performance on stage and excellent performance at work. It is therefore no surprise that we draw on the concepts and practices that lead to excellent performance on the stage and apply them to our short courses in business and organisations:
- speaking well and authentically - speaking with real impact - listening and being spontaneous - improvisational ability - real creative instinct - preparing a role - projecting and reflecting - working effectively in a collaboration group - being led and learning to lead - the skills of direction - the skills of effective production - writing with inspiration and impact - working through difference and conflict - drafting change - cranking up performance and continual innovation - reworking processes - creating together - the process of design and the process of devising - conferring and discussion skills - moving beyond the collusion of mediocrity - negotiating real and ethical agreements - the backdrop of drama and change - developing self-confidence - developing self-awareness - working in fair ways with diversity - specifying and implementing appropriate technology - developing sustainable processes - warming up to the work - lean thinking and efficient performance - the quality of quality management - working emergently and convergently - reaching group decisions - working and meeting together - the process of note taking and recording ideas - movement and body language - creating sustainable relaxation - the nature of excellent performance - learning from others and learning how to learn - inducting new members into a group or organisation - being charismatic - being artistic with work - networking and meeting your community - promoting an event authentically and impressively - involving others in creative processes - management and leadership in delivering performance
