Instructor Bio
Robert Bystrom describes himself as a friend of the pattern. He saw the holographic nature of the universe as a small boy and has had an eye for pattern and the interconnected aspect of all things ever since.
He has acted as a professional artist, educator, coach, entrepreneur, author, gardener, family man, sun bather, body surfer, appreciator of all things beautiful, mystic, outcast and other roles. The common thread through it all has been curiosity. He wonders how things work, whether it’s propaganda and mind control or how color and pigments work or what the anatomy of personal relationships and emotions are.
One such pattern that occurred to him was the consistent way that thinking seemed to follow a pattern. It took years to distill and test his theory. The result was a clear picture of how human intelligence works in individuals and how collective intelligence works in groups. It’s all about questions.
At this phase in life, his question is, “What am I uniquely positioned to contribute to humanity that no one else is doing?”
The Question-Driven Approach™ Program is one answer to that question. It’s a big experiment because the territory of the question-driven mind is enormous and he believes he has merely scratched the surface. He wants to see what can happen and what big questions can be invented and explored as more individuals join the expedition.
Robert’s background is in education, art and interpersonal communication. A graduate of Cal Berkeley, a Peace Corps Volunteer in India, CEO of Springer Exercise Equipment Corp. in San Francisco, student of Dick Nelson and the Maui tri-hue watercolor technique, and founding director of Collective Intelligence Solutions, where he further refined concepts for the Question-Driven Approach to Life™. In 1997, he co-produced the Women’s Global Voice.
He believes we all have the innate ability to perform at a higher level, to rise to new occasions, not by trying harder but by thinking more deliberately. His work can be accessed at www.MenRisingNow.com and www.RBystrom.com (Question-Driven Leadership).
