Rebecca Stockley said… - Hi Pam! When you are in Chicago you must meet Kat Koppett (if she's there) her book, "Training to Imagine" is a great tool for trainers and facilitators in the work place. Kat is a dear friend - she was part of BATS for years and now lives in New York. -Rebecca

Paul Z Jackson said… - Hi Pam, thanks for your message. Good to have you in the network. Yes, I'll be in Chicago, and look forward to meeting you there. Meanwhile, you could have a look at the case study survey on this site, see what you think and perhaps contribute a short case. I've not considered women in particular in the application of improv, though did have an impro show - All Made Up - for women performers only, a while back.
