Consulting for Individuals, Nonprofits, & Purpose-Driven Businesses
I am Robert Patrick Levey (Rev.), PhD, MBA—a philosopher, educator, and consultant who works with individuals, nonprofits, and purpose-driven businesses. I help people connect the dots between meaning, decision-making, and implementation, especially when the usual frameworks feel too limited for the world we live in today.
My work operates across three systems simultaneously: the personal, the relational, and the larger field. When these systems are viewed together, clarity moves from an abstract idea to concrete actions that align ethically, strategically, and with lasting impact.
Rev. Dr. Robert Levey
Three System Approach
Most challenges do not live in one place. They move across people, relationships, and context. My consulting works in three systems simultaneously:
The Personal
Perspective, identity, values, attention, responsibility, and the stories that shape action.
The Relational
Trust, conflict, communication, power, accountability, and culture.
The Larger Field
The organizational, social, and ecological context shaping what is possible, including the reality of an active ecological crisis.

Spaciology
A Practical Philosophy for Change
Spaciology is my research-supported philosophy of space as strategic metaphor. It is a way to see where change is actually happening (or not happening) across the personal system, the relational system, and the larger field—so that action becomes coherent and sustainable.
