Improv Comedy as a Social Engineering Tool

Presented at DerbyCon 7.0 Legacy (2017), Sept. 22, 2017, 6 p.m. (25 minutes).

The rules of improv comedy can apply to many social interactions, including bluffing your way to compromise a target. The constantly changing situations of improv are great practice for accepting unexpected circumstances, and happily going with the flow. Dave Mattingly was a comedy and punk radio DJ, while he was a NASA rocket scientist. He ran a sci-fi and RPG publishing company, while writing anti-terrorism software for DHS and anti-fraud detection for the finance industry. He's an itinerant preacher, entrepreneur, award-winning speaker, and occasional improv comic. In short, he doesn't know what he wants to do when he grows up. @dave_mattingly
