Humor and business events, it's a less strange combination than you might think at first glance. The attendees will leave the room with a lot of energy and joy, and plenty to talk about.
Humor and business events, it’s a less strange combination than you might think at first glance. Of course, we’re not talking about humor of the slapstick or laugh-or-cry variety, but about comedians who contribute to the goals of your event with amusing and substantive stories.
Rob Urgert is not only a comedian but also a PhD scientist. He has combined these disciplines in the book ‘Crash Course in Humor’, and in a humorous presentation titled ‘How to Get a Brilliant Idea in 30 Minutes?’, where he shares his vision on creative thinking.
Joep van Deudekom started as a physical education teacher, then became a lawyer before becoming a comedian with NUHR (with Peter Heerschop and Viggo Waas). Additionally, he was a presenter for Discovery Channel and has written several books. Besides the events with Rob, he is also available as a moderator.
Joep van Deudekom and Rob Urgert, both comedians and known for ‘De Kwis’, ‘Het Instituut’, and the new Sunday night TV program ‘Who Do You Think You Are?’, have been touring the event circuit for some time. They have developed three programs for the corporate market:
In ‘How Do I Become Even More Successful?’, they discuss which factors make someone more successful than others. Everyone wants to be successful, and many books/courses have been published on the topic. Rob and Joep looked at the science behind success. What are the conditions under which you can become successful? (30 – 45 min)
In ‘How Do I Make Pure Choices (in These Uncertain Times)?’, the comedians show how we are influenced by factors we are not aware of when making choices. A person makes thousands of choices throughout their life. In a hyperactive program, Rob and Joep demonstrate that those choices are often not as pure and well-considered as we tend to think. Through exercises, double meanings, and a lot of humor, they teach you how to avoid these pitfalls. Don’t just sit back; let yourself be taken on this mental rollercoaster! (30 – 45 min)
In ‘The Connectors’, they guide the audience in a cheerful, warm, and interactive program towards pure connection with each other through a well-thought-out step-by-step plan. Making contact, giving compliments, singing together, and sharing intimate confessions; Rob and Joep know how to mold the audience into one big cheerful group through their years of stage experience, humor, and relaxation. (30 – 45 min)
All three programs by Urgert & Van Deudekom are based on scientific insights that the gentlemen present in a humorous and interactive way using videos, photo questions, and experiments. What you can expect: top entertainment with a solid substantive foundation.
The attendees will leave the room charged with energy and joy, and have plenty to talk about.
If you book Urgert & Van Deudekom, you get a 100% success guarantee.
