Meet Bob.
In his words
Every part of life is a playing field.
“I love empowering people to stretch into new ways of being. I see every part of our lives as a playing field to explore and evolve — business, parenting, relationships, finances, spiritual development. We usually focus on improving just one. I want to help you bring your best to all of them.”
“Vision holder, solution generator, coach, cheerleader, challenger — that’s how I support my clients. And that’s how I’ll support you: to live authentically the life you love, and take increasing responsibility to love and lead yourself, your family, and your business.”
“My life is an adventure of living my higher purpose. That’s what I love helping others do — to live their ‘how.’”
Bob Wright shows you what happens when the hard light of uncommon sense shines on every part of life.— Andrew Harvey, author
The work
Bob’s gift is strategizing other people’s development — harmonizing profound spiritual insight with actionable psychological and relational frameworks. He is the past CEO and co-founder of the Wright Foundation for the Realization of Human Potential, a 501(c)(3) non-profit, and co-founder and retired Professor of Transformational Leadership at the Wright Graduate University.
An internationally recognized visionary, educator, program developer, author, speaker, and entrepreneur, Bob was named a top executive coach by Crain’s Chicago Business. He has coached CEOs across the country — from leading-name public companies to entrepreneurial startups.
His revolutionary Integrative Model of Human Growth & Development turns theory into everyday practice — called “the most powerful comprehensive model of its kind,” it forms the core curriculum behind the method and has helped hundreds of thousands of people understand themselves, strategize, and take action to reach their potential.
The journey
A scholar of how people change.
Bob’s own credentials span the very disciplines his model integrates: a BA in Sociology, an MA in Communications, an MSW in Clinical Social Work, and a Doctorate in Education, Leadership, and Change. Few people have studied human growth so widely — and fewer still have turned that study into something this practical.
A bestselling author, he delivers what writer Andrew Harvey calls his “hard light.” He co-authored the award-winning The Heart of the Fight, alongside books on people skills, purposeful living, lifelong learning, and adult transformation. His training methodology leads not only to professional success, but to fulfillment across every area of life.
Through it all runs a single conviction: “Leadership is a crucial aspect of our lives, because we all want to be effective — we all want to have a positive influence on those around us.” Bob’s adventure is living his higher purpose, and helping others live theirs.
I hired Bob as my business coach. My business has grown from $500K to a multimillion-dollar company.— Eleanor Williams
