Robert (Bob) Bever is the Chief Catalyst at RLB Partners. “Great things never come from comfort zones. My objective as a strategic business coach is to challenge business owners to move outside their comfort zone. Being a catalyst allows me to increase the rate of change needed to achieve goals.”
Bob has been leading, developing, and training people and teams for over forty years. He has held senior executive-level positions in marketing, sales, distribution, and business development for non-profit organizations, sales consulting firms, and publishing companies. In 2013 Bob launched his coaching practice, RLB Partners, providing strategic business coaching to business owners who desire to grow and reach their goals. His passion is to help leaders grow their businesses by adding value to them - daily. He has managed both volunteer and employee teams ranging from 10 to over 500 people in his executive leadership roles. His coaching career includes working with CEOs, executives, leadership teams, and personalized life coaching.
Bob attended Trinity University in Deerfield, IL, graduating magna cum laude with a BA degree in psychology. He also graduated from Moody Bible Institute in Chicago, IL, where he majored in communications. As a motivational speaker, he has presented to audiences of over 1,500 attendees in the US, UK, Brazil, Argentina, and the Philippines. His speaking and writing span topics from theology to business management and personal development.
Bob’s abilities in strategic planning, vision casting/clarifying, problem-solving, and his passion for serving people are the basis to help lead, inspire, and motivate business teams to achieve their objectives. “Often, businesses either lack in the planning process or the implementation of the plan. Both are critical to success. Execution without strategy has no purpose, and strategy without execution has no value. My role is to help businesses ensure both occur.”
