WhatComesNext.Live: Rob Poynton

Master of Pause

July 21, 2020

The word that comes to mind for me with Rob is “Master”, whether as author of “Do Pause“, Facilitator, Coach, Designer, Rob brings his knowledge, curiosity and playfulness to whatever he focusses on, bringing great value to others. I look forward to his thoughts on what comes next.

Key takeaways:

• Rob encourages us to take our own experience seriously
• Body – understand our body and what it tells us
• Feelings… “are data too”
• “What interests, is interesting” (~ William Haslett)
