Bob Cipriano spent years as a professional teacher/trainer, conducting academic and corporate workshops in America and other parts of the world. His work focused primarily on an array of communication skills.

Over time, his personal interest in Consciousness Theory, Meditation, the Tao and Zen led to his embrace of Mindfulness. It emerged for him as a key not only to attention and its resulting inner peace, but also to communication among people. He began to incorporate Mindfulness into his various trainings, adding new depth to writing, time management, customer service, project management and presentation seminars. He began conducting Mindfulness workshops as a result, and wrote Stay in Touch following their success.

He holds an MA from the University of Rhode Island and a BA from the University of Connecticut.

His background, in addition to teaching, includes corporate management and marketing. He lives in Exeter, Rhode Island with his family.
