Why it was selected for "CBNation Architects":
This episode of I AM CEO Podcast features Mary Lemmer, the founder of Improve. Mary's company is dedicated to improving leadership and personal lives using improv comedy techniques, all backed by research. As per Mary's own words, they provide "M&Ms laced with vitamins" - beneficial lessons in a fun format.
Mary hails from Michigan and her family originated from Italy. Mary started her entrepreneurial journey at a very young age by selling Italian water ice at events, parties, and festivals - a summer business that's still growing after 20 years. Mary's business experiences in her early life led her to business school, venture capitals, and later, improv comedy classes which have enriched her life and her business perspective.
The services offered by Mary's company, Improve, involve enhancing leadership, innovation, problem-solving skills, growth, and team culture. The secret sauce is creating a psychological space that allows individuals to play around and try new skills through Improv techniques.
The CEO hacks that Mary shares in this episode include practicing a "screen-less" Sunday, where no emails or social media are checked, and time is spent on offline activities. The CEO nugget she shares is to take everything as a gift and release pressures in life, always moving forward.
Finally, Mary defines a CEO as someone who is empowering, empathetic, and visionary, with courage and compassion.
