Robert Smith:  

It's been a long time since graduating from Springfield High School in June 1970! Went off to Lafayette College where I worked with Young Life and graduated early (to save my folks the tuition money and get out of school!). Started Seminary the day after I got married to Jan, a teacher at Moravian Academy in Bethlehem, Pa. Transferred to Fuller Seminary in Pasadena, California and began ten years in the glorious state. Earned a Master of Divinity, was ordained in the Presbyterian Church and took a job as Youth Pastor in Danville, California. Continued schooling (Doctoral program at Fuller and Graduate Business School at Berkeley) and ended up with a Doctorate. Moved to Dallas at the prompting of a friend, worked with Roger Staubach in commercial real estate in the mid 80's and then started a training and development and consulting business with a friend. Started my own company in 1995, Clear Direction, which is still my principal business. Was divorced from first wife in 1991 and raised my twin daughters (they were 8) for the next three and a half years - when I married Jill in 1994. Developed patented software technologies using a formal value science for business and relationship applications - and now have the most highly acclaimed and fasting growing software products in their industry sectors. Have written four books, speak in the US and in Europe, and have different awards for my works. Have a great job helping my clients maximize their businesses and high potential people - I am part of the reason that the Philadelphia 76ers and Flyers have had such fantastic growth and improvement in the past two and a half years.
