Sue Walden

Sue Walden is the Founder and Director of ImprovWorks, a not-for-profit organization dedicated to building Life/Business Skills through Improvisation. Her experience includes a BA in Education and, since 1978,teaching, performing, adapting and widely applying the techniques of improvisation. She approaches improv training as a powerful and joyful way to peel away constraints, restraints and inhibitions, allowing the naturally expressive, collaborative and creative self to emerge.

Sue is a skilled teacher in ImprovWorks' public workshop program, a dynamic corporate facilitator, an engaging speaker, an author (Working with Groups to Enhance Relationships), and the director and a regular performer with San Francisco's longest-running improvisational theater company, "Flash Family". Demonstrating her desire to continually stretch her envelope, she created a one-woman [sorta] improv show: Sue & Friends. In addition, Sue has been a Specialty Staff member for Coaches Training Institutes year-long Co-Active Leadership Program since its inception eight years ago.

Her current passion is training trainers, consulting on how to design powerful experiential workshops, and writing her second book that focuses on facilitation skills for interactive learning. Sue promises that, in any of her programs, while the learning may be challenging, it will also be fun!
