Teamwork: The Power of Partnership

Many speakers talk about teamwork. Jon and Owen do it.

Their success is proven, their talent unique, and nowhere else will you see such an exciting demonstration of the amazing things that can be accomplished when people work together.

The Passing Zone is a comedy duo who not only work together – their safety is in each other”s hands! Every moment of this presentation is a clear example of collaboration between two people who have prepared, who rely on each other”s strengths, who communicate, trust, and have fun cooperating. Their entertaining and inspiring performance uses big laughs, exciting stunts, and flawless teamwork, creating an unforgettable experience for any industry.

Audience members discover:

+ The importance of recovering from setbacks
+ How working well together creates a cohesive, effective team
+ The value of trust
+ What it takes for teamwork excellence
+ How to foster relationships with partners and customers
+ How to laugh together

Throwing chainsaws, balancing on each others” shoulders while juggling flaming torches, demonstrating teamwork by getting people from the audience to participate – are all part of Teamwork: The Power of Partnership. Imagine your CEO standing in the middle of flying sickles and blazing torches! They even juggle three people from the audience in their exciting piece – People-Juggling.

Don”t just tell your people how to be a team…show them.

THE WATER COOLERS The Comedy Group that Sings

March 8, 2013 in Entertainment, Humorist Speakers

The Water Coolers specializes in comedy songs and sketches about work, life and everything in between. Kids, cars, computers, daycare, and deadlines — if you””””ve talked about it around the water cooler, odds are we have a hilarious song about it.

When we do a corporate or association event, we start with that ever-increasing wealth of material about life and work. After learning about your event and your audience, we build a set list that aligns with your objective, fits with your culture, and is on target for your attendees. For example… • For audiences that travel a lot, we do our “Air Travel Medley” including “Flying In Economy” (sung to the tune of Leaving On A Jet Plane) and “De-Lay” (Harry Belafonte’s Day-O).

• For sales audiences, we might do “Nowhere Close To My Quota” (Somewhere Over the Rainbow) and “We Are the Sales Reps” (We Are the Champions).

• For audiences that spend a lot of time dealing with technology we’ll include our IT medley, which speaks to anyone ever held captive by a help line (“And Hold Please”), who has pretended to understand an IT guy (“The I.T. Cowboy”), or found themselves judged by how many words a minute they can type with their thumbs (“Blackberry”).

Where possible, language can be added to introductions that speak directly to the audience

Owen Morse and Jon Wee have done the impossible: they””””ve made juggling hip. Their show is in a class by itself. These two guys are taking the art of juggling to new heights, shattering the preconception that jugglers belong in a circus, or in clown suits at a kid””””s birthday party. After seeing their show you may for the first time, and against your better judgment, become a fan of juggling.

What makes The Passing Zone so special, you ask? In addition to their award-winning juggling skills, this show is funny. Really funny. Just ask Johnny Carson, who repeatedly invited The Passing Zone to appear on The Tonight Show. They even made Prince Charles laugh, at The Royal Command Performance in London.

The Passing Zone on ICE: Innovation, Collaboration, Execution

January 28, 2013 in Entertainment, Motivational Speakers, Teamwork Speakers

Want a cool keynote experience? Just add I.C.E

Jon Wee and Owen Morse, The Passing Zone, are one of the most accomplished comedy duos in the nation, and they”ve done it by focusing on three success principles. Those same principles can help any group achieve fantastic results, and there is no better way to bring them these key ideas than through The Passing Zone”s hilarious, energetic, and inspiring keynote.

Innovation:

You want your company or organization to innovate, to be different, to stand out from the rest. Don”t do what everyone else does. Look for ways to be creative, unique, and move the world forward with new ideas. Success demands innovation.

The Passing Zone are innovators. They juggle astronauts (audience members), ride Segways while juggling inflated bags, and juggle chainsaws while dancing in tights and tutus. Their skill is unmatched, and their humor is unequaled, and you”ve never seen anything like it! These guys innovate each and every day, and they will inspire your people to do the same.

Collaboration:

Nobody accomplishes anything alone. In order to succeed, your people need to understand the importance of working with others around them. Rely on each other”s strengths. Collaboration requires trust, communication, cooperation – and practice!

Jon and Owen don”t just talk about collaboration, they do it! They rely on each other at every moment, on stage, for their success, and even their safety! Watch two people whose career is based on working together. Your people will see, like never before, that nothing beats effective collaboration.

Execution:

Great ideas and plans mean nothing without execution. Your people need to carry out their vision and their plans, and they need to do it with excellence. Get it done, and do it right! Give your customer the very best you have to offer.

The Passing Zone will execute excellence right in front of your eyes. They need to be flawless, or things go crashing to the stage! Their precision, skill, and success will blow your people away. They present outrageous, complex stunts, and they execute them live, on stage. If mistakes happen (and sometimes they do!), they are handled with precision and professionalism, which is all part of execution. Show your people execution at its best – and most fun!

Friday Morning Funnies with Best Corporate Comedy Act Around – THE WATER COOLERS –

January 25, 2013 in Entertainment

People like to talk about themselves. They also love to hear stories about experiences familiar to them. The famous theme song from Cheers said it best, “Sometimes you wanna go where everybody knows your name.” The Water Coolers take that concept, add hilarious comedy, original music and parodies of familiar songs, and use NYC comics and singers to celebrate the crazy, funny, maddening and yet somehow universally comforting insanity of everyday life. The Water Coolers created the act originally for the meetings industry but, since our Off Broadway run in 2002, The Water Coolers has found an enthusiastic and devoted audience in the mainstream entertainment world.
