Robert Poynton lives in an off-grid, solar-powered house just outside the small town of Arenas de San Pedro in rural Spain. By way of contrast, he also spends a significant amount of time in Oxford, where he is an Associate Fellow of the Sa�d Business School at the University of Oxford. His work there is practical not academic - he designs and runs executive education programs, helping senior leaders understand and work with complex change, via a playful approach developed from improvisational theatre. Many of his friends regard his entire career as one long pause. He is also the author of Do Improvise (Do Books, 2013).
"Even a briefest moment of idle time, or pauses, are important says
Robert Poynton, author of Do Pause: You are not a To Do list" - The
Washington Post "Most self-help guides give you tips to cram more
into your life. But Do Pause will ensure the reverse - that you get
more out of your life. Pressing the pause button is the key to
being happier and healthier" - Inspire, Daily Mail "Robert
Poynton's incisive new book...encourages us to make a little more
time for pauses in our lives." - The Essential Journal "What an
excellent book this is. Warm, wise and explains how you literally
create time." - Nick Parker, author & illustrator
