Communicating for Life presents an introduction to

The Power of Question-Driven Intelligence™

The sky was the limit

What if your mind was not meant to be a problem for you? Because for a lot of people, it is.

“A person’s life is the answer to the questions they ask.”

– R. Buckminster Fuller,
Engineer, designer, social philosopher

What if the reason that efforts at changing unwanted mental activity produce limited results is because of an inaccurate understanding of the mind? Accurately understood, the mind is a person’s greatest resource.

What is Question-Driven Intelligence?

It is breakthrough thoughtware in using the mind the way it was designed. The annoying chatter of what Buddhists call the monkey mind indicates a person does not understand their mind’s operating system and is, therefore, operating on default mode. QDI is an effective way of talking with oneself that produces more desirable mental activity.

QDI is the practice of asking questions that cuts through mental waste and moves a person forward.

Remember this formula. It is the formula that describes the mind’s operating system.

I = f (Q)

Intelligence is a function of questions.

Who is the Question-Driven Intelligence™ Program for?

It is for people who care about what goes on in their minds and have been frustrated in their efforts to tap into its true potential and are looking for a breakthrough and who desire access to capacities they suspect they have but don’t know how to access. This work is for parents, executives, therapists, team leaders, teachers and coaches—people who rely on communication skills to move quickly to the core of a situation and create connections.

It is for people who simply want to end the struggle in their heads.

Why is accessing our greater intelligence so important right now?

I am sharing this discovery at this time because you and I stand at a pivotal point in history, both individually and globally. We need all the clarity and mental power we can get because the stakes are undeniably high.

If you are not using your mind, someone else is.

There is a war going on and it is for our attention and our minds. The rate of change in the global culture is accelerating, our choices and decisions have a greater impact, sooner. We can no longer afford the luxury of the illusion that we are powerless and pretend that the direction we are headed is someone else’s responsibility.

What is the Question-Driven Intelligence™ Program?

The Q-D I program is a six-month training in the art of questioning. It begins with an hour and a half masterclass followed by 6 months of question lab.

The Master Class is where a new understanding of thinking begins. The hour and a half long Master Class is an in-depth survey of the field of question-driven intelligence, from the cosmic to the mundane. It is information that has been proven effective for professional project management teams, executive teams, non-profit organizations, individuals and families.

The Question Lab is where all the action takes place, videos, experimentation, classes, research. Most of all, the Q Lab is a community of curious thinkers exploring the possibilities of self-improving human intelligence where members can practice using deliberate questions to discover new possibilities in every area of life, personal and professional. What else is possible? Is the guiding question. No subject is off limits.

The Question-Driven Intelligence™ Innovator

Robert describes himself as a friend of the pattern. He saw the fractal 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 forever 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.
