#9 Part 1: Translating improv to business and life with "the master", Robert Poynton

If anyone’s work and experience speaks volumes about the power of play, creativity and improvisation in life and especially in business, it’s today’s guest. We welcome Robert Poynton, author of Do Improvise and Do Pause, co-founder of On Your Feet, and Associate Fellow at not just one, but two of Oxford’s schools - the Said Business School, where he is faculty on the Strategic Leadership Program AND at Green Templeton College where he collaborates on the Oxford Praxis Program - a platform for experiments and innovation. And that doesn’t even begin to capture it all, but you get the picture. This guy knows his stuff and has played a significant role in the path Kirsten has chosen. In part one, we explore Rob’s experience translating improv to business and life, including the beautiful simplicity of Let Go, Notice More and Use Everything as a foundational element in everything he does, even in his work in complexity. We also discuss how a Constructive POV (what can I do with this?) can be even more effective than optimism (and pessimism) in Creating Forward.Check out more of Rob's latest projects:The Pause Project: https://www.robertpoynton.com/about-the-pause-projectThe Creative Tapas Experience: https://www.robertpoynton.com/thecreativetapasexperience
