Event Outcomes:
Walk away knowing how to stay present and authentic in interviews—whether 1:1 with an admissions director or in group settings with multiple candidates—instead of delivering rehearsed answers. You'll understand how to read and calibrate power dynamics in real-time (Status Intelligence) and shift fluidly between different roles based on what the moment requires (Role Agility)—skills that separate memorable candidates from polished-but-forgettable ones.
Learning Objectives:
-Understand Status Intelligence: how to read interviewers' signals and calibrate your energy without losing authenticity
-Practice Role Agility: knowing when to be the storyteller vs. the analyst vs. the collaborator—showing up to serve the moment
-Recognize when you're "performing" vs. genuinely connecting in high-stakes conversations—and course correct if you need to
Details:
This live, interactive 60-minute workshop teaches two core principles from improvisational theater through demonstration and group participation. No performance experience needed—just willingness to engage. You'll see how the same interview content lands completely differently based on status choices, learn to read situational cues that tell you which role to inhabit, and practice techniques you can use immediately in both individual and group interview formats. I'll bring 20+ years coaching MBA candidates plus extensive theater training to help you master the human dynamics of interviews, not just the content.
