 Hey everybody, I'm Alex Kleberg and what I do is I work with, I work with entrepreneurs to help start a small business and I work with, I do volunteer work with social entrepreneurs and I work with regular, I guess, non-social entrepreneurs as well. So in my last experience with Cat Coppit, we talked about the dramatic shift when status changes to a new group and that, I just realized at that moment that is what I'm talking about today. I really didn't have words for it but now I do so if you're in the room, Cat, thank you. These are a list of skills. These are new skills for new areas of management, social enterprise and small business entrepreneurship that have shifted lately and what I found and as I was reviewing these and I was working with these with my clients that improv is totally related to like a vast majority of these brand new skills and the reason that is is because there's been a shift. So one of the, I'm going to focus on three in my time here. One of the big shifts is the wisdom of crowds. In the past, those who had the authority and the status, processes were simple, change was slow and jobs were stable. You can say what my job title was and that was going to be your job title for a long time. Remember those days? That was very simple. What's my job title now? Boy, it's a story right now but so the things have changed and what Robert McNamara really typified this era, the whiz kid of GM, he said the more the important the decision, the less people I want to have make it. So I want to reduce the decision to experts. Now what leaders are doing is they're leaders are actually able to pull knowledge from groups of experts and even create work with groups of experts like Steve Jobs and create a reality distortion machine that actually can can get people to believe and do things they didn't think possible. And how this relates to improv is this is something that we do every day on stage. It is a blank stage out there. It's a beautiful thing when you're standing right behind the stage and you just see it out there and it's nothing. It's absolutely pure and we go out there and all we have is each other and we don't know what's going to happen and what we're going to do and what sort of story is going to come out but we're pulling it out of our partners and our teammates. So we have a unique ability to pull various interactions, drives characters and issues forward and push it forward to create a scene. Now in the social enterprise the new ability is really to jump in before ensuring that they're fully resourced and in this chain social enterprise is different than a charity in that in the past having a patron was a key. You had a patron or a strong foundation that supported one group whereas in social enterprise as typified by Muhammad Yunus said that it's a more sustainable enterprise. We find a social good and we get people to keep on paying back in and it moves forward and in fact that's what we do as improvisers. We have a trained instinct to jump in when the time is right and push things so they keep moving forward. Regarding with resources, man we want to talk about not having resources think back to that black stage, that empty stage that you can jump out and you have to just create what you have and then finally in small business really there's this new talk about engaging failure. You want to, maybe it's a sign of the current economic climate but there's a lot of literature out there about failure, failing fast, how to fail properly and move forward and in the past before the status shift failure was the worst thing possible because you'd heaped so many resources on a few experts and everything was mounted on this one thing that was going to either go or fail but now with the diversity, with different voices, with different projects and a more portfolio approach to risk management it's appropriate to fail fast and move forward and again improvisers having a unique ability and unique insight in this because we can't focus on failure. We only can focus on the future. We have, in fact we believe that on stage there is no failure. There's only something that's been said and we have to push forward and move on and that's exactly what entrepreneurs that are succeeding today are doing and we have unique insight into this as improvisers. So there's a transformation, there's a transformation that's happened that's actually shifted the status, change happens faster, new voices, the faces of America and the world that we're living in are changing, the hemispheres, the hegemonic powers are changing and as new risks and opportunities are presenting themselves with new technology and so the answer is that improvisers, the skills that we train for to do what we can do on stage are uniquely suited to the new challenges that we have today so go out and apply improv to the world and you are now in the space where the status has shifted so go out and bring it. Thank you.
