The Do Book Co is an independent publishing company launched in 2013. Their concise guides are designed to help creative entrepreneurs, makers and Doers work smarter and create positive change.

Written by experts whose stories and ideas have inspired others to go and Do, the collection spans design, business, wellbeing and sustainable living with each book focusing on the ‘doing’ rather than the background theory. Concise, practical guides that make it easier to Do stuff.

1) Do/IMPROVISE – Robert Poynton teaches an acclaimed method to some of the world’s biggest brands and companies, including Nike, Chanel and PwC. In this new edition, he shows us how these improvisational skills can be applied to the everyday business of work and life – helping us to navigate the daily obstacles and reminding us how the unplanned and the unexpected can be a source of wonder and delight.

2) Do/LEAD - In Do Lead, Les McKeown draws on his decades as CEO and senior advisor to demolish the myths around modern-day leadership – and provide new tools for the job. You’ll discover that effective leadership is goal- not people-oriented. It’s about the person with the right skills stepping forward.

3) Do/DESIGN - Designer Alan Moore invites us to rethink not only what we produce – whether it’s a website, a handmade chair, or a business – but how and why. With examples from Apple, Yeo Valley and Blitz Motorcycles, we are encouraged to ask: is it useful and considered? Is it a thing of beauty?
