Do Improvise by Robert Poynton teaches an acclaimed method to some of the world’s biggest brands and companies. Improvisational skills that an actor might use on stage are honed and applied to the everyday business of work and life. The end result is a new approach that embraces change as a natural process and has creativity and innovation at its heart.

We totally agree with The Do Books Company mission: getting people to Do more. A simple mind shift, a shot of inspiration to help you get started or a new skill or craft, these kinds of doing are at the core of their inspirational pocket guidebooks. This guide book is part of their range of Smart Working books we offer at Misc.

Everyday we deal with the unplanned and the unexpected - from a broken toaster to losing (or gaining) a major client. Our natural ability to improvise gets us through. But we feel as if we’re winging it, rather than acting with courage and conviction.

With killer games to put the theory into practice, Do Improvise will help you:

Become more productive without trying harder
Overcome creative blocks and generate new ideas
Respond fluently to circumstances beyond your control
Inspire and motivate others


Not sure what to do next? Improvise.

Do Improvise is all about:
How using basic improv skills in business will radically improve your performance
Simple quick-to-learn method used by global brands such as Nike, Orange and Disney
Ideal for directors, managers and employees who value innovation and agile thinking
Includes killer games to put theory into practice



Misc also offers Do PurposeDo LeadDo ProtectDo Story and Do Design of the Slow Living Range.

About The Do Book Company

The Do Book Company at Misc-store Amsterdam

The Do Book Company launched in 2013 with the aim of helping creative entrepreneurs, makers and Doers work smarter and create positive change. Since then, their collection of pocket guides has grown to 40 (and counting!) titles spanning design, business, wellbeing and sustainable living, with each book focusing on the ‘doing’, not the background theory.

At Misc Store we encourage The Do Book Company's mission: getting people to Do more. Collaborating with a variety of different entrepreneurs, artists, doers, makers and thinkers, the Do Book series explores a wide variety of different topics. Have you ever thought of making jam or sourdough, perhaps developing a green finger or two, or start your own business? Do Books got you covered.

Each book is written by a speaker from the Do Lectures, an annual event held in west Wales, drawing on the practical experiences and research of each individual author. Their book is personal to them, while still being relatable and inspiring for its readers. The idea is a simple one: people who Do things can inspire the rest of us to go and Do amazing things too. Thumbs up from us.
