Meet Alex Mann, Improviser, Actor, Author and a Corrections Officer with a Sheriff’s Office for 28 years in Boston, Massachusetts. I was particularly interested in his use of improv with first responders as I had spent several years as a Critical Incident Stress Responder in Florida. He has authored "The Law of Improv": Yes, and for First responders" which you can see on YouTube at https://www.youtube.com/@theLawofImprov or better yet, buy his book on Amazon.

He is an amazing person who is also a member of SAG-AFTRA.

He is doing really important work bringing improv to corrections facilities and to other law enforcement folks! In our talk we covered a lot about his improv philosophy and techniques including; how improv tools help regulate stress responses and improve emotional resilience, what “leading from presence, not position” looks like in real-world policing and public safety, practical communication strategies anyone can use to lower conflict and build trust, and how creativity and mental health intersect in both leadership and everyday interactions.
