Ann...good work.
I am very interested in the exercises you've developed from Robert McKee's theories.
I remember reading (?) that Robert McKee says he can't teach you how to write a good story...but he knows one when he reads it. Interesting.......

I have a few questions:
Do you have the audience members stand on the stage?

Wonderful getting to know you in Arnhem.
The London AIN session was great! Really nice to meet such interested people and we had fun experimenting with status. I believe Paul is going to post a movie with some comments.
Hope to see you again soon!

Ann Feehan said… - Hey William,
I looked at your posting about the book "The No Asshole Rule" and that you want more information about studies mentioned.
I looked on Amazon.com as they sometimes include reference material cited in nonfiction books. No luck (although there is an online test people can take to find out if they are an a**.
However, there is a post by the author referencing his blog: www.bobsutton.net
Not only can you post your question to the author but he posts about a lot of the books that have (or are) influencing him. He mentions the book "Influence" which I skimmed and plan on reading - one day. I will definitely be looking at his blog again. There is an entry about hospitals that looks interesting.
have a hell of a time with our mask workshop this weekend...

- Hi William,
Truly enjoyed your KJ intensive workshop last weekend. I realize I have your play book, as well. You have a joy about you that is infectious. Thanks for sharing your insights with me, and the class.
2 Questions I have for this group are:
1. What in your experience do you see as the overarching benefit, and secondary benefits, women in business learn from improv, and how to they apply it back at work?
2. Do you have women clients who show personal and professional growth/increased joy and success from applying what they learned about improv that you can refer to me to interview?

Leif Hansen said… - Hi William,
Thank you for the excellent improv intensive workshop at BATS this week. I left with a bigger toolkit, felt challenged on some core levels of understanding improv, and enjoyed our personal and business conversations as well. Look forward to seeing more of you and possibly working with you in the future!
