How NOT to Lose Friends and Alienate People...

Claims that physical posture and everyday transition phrases change inclusion and creative output and supports that with improv‑style drills: a power‑pose citation, a timed one‑minute group design task where a datataker counts phrase occurrences, and roleplay switching between "No", "Yes but" and "Yes and". Tools actually used are stretching, stance adjustment, monitored conversational experiments and tallying rejections versus expansions. Also mentions a 75‑person Sally Conference that builds five‑year timelines as an accountability product.
