What's our part in developing the field of Applied Improvisation?
Hello from the president. I notice that more than a thousand of us have signed up to be part of the AIN. I’m guessing that means we all have an interest in developing the field of applied improvisation – perhaps to generate more work for ourselves, or to learn more about how improvisation can impact the world of organisations and communities.
The most immediate way we can do this is by strengthening our network: asking and answering questions, sharing our tips and experiences, connecting to fin… Continue

- I contacted Belina and we will see what she says. Certainly, I am aware of your book so I'd like to get it to the conference as well. I won't be able to attend the conference as I am handling book sales for the much larger Evolution of Psychotherapy Conference being held in Anaheim in December. If you are curious about that one - go to www.evolutionofpsychotherapy.com. They expect 7,000 people!
