About the Founder

MEET JONROBERT.

Dr. JonRobert Tartaglione

Very few leadership programs focus on the actual mechanics of human behavior — what motivates people to change their minds, say yes, or take action. You can arm leaders with the best strategy in the world, but if they don't understand how to actually move people to adopt it, execution will always stall.

I've dedicated my career to helping organizations close this gap. I partner with teams across the Fortune 500 universe, top law firms, global nonprofits, and more to equip them with the research-backed skills to communicate so that attitudes actually shift, lead so that action actually follows, and turn good ideas into change that actually sticks.

Attitude and behavior change is complicated, but it isn't a mystery — it's a science. And it's one we can teach.

The Problems We Solve

WHY ORGANIZATIONS BRING US IN.

Organizations usually don't call us because nothing is working. They call when something important is almost working — when the strategy is sound, the content is strong, and the people are capable, but behavior still isn't shifting.

  1. Trigger 01

    Your leadership programs get rave reviews, but you're not seeing the behavior change on the floor.

  2. Trigger 02

    A change initiative is sound on paper, but adoption has stalled.

  3. Trigger 03

    Your managers can recite the company values, but they can't yet move people through them.

  4. Trigger 04

    Leaders are saying the right things, but people just aren't convinced by it.

  5. Trigger 05

    A senior leader has a high-stakes moment ahead, but a rehearsed deck won't be enough.

COMMUNICATE PERSUASIVELY.

Attitudes are complex. Learn how we form them and what causes us to reconsider them in order to craft communication strategies that connect, convince, and ultimately change minds.

IMPACT DECISION-MAKING.

If you understand how people choose, you can better predict what they'll choose. Learn about the factors that influence choice to more effectively impact consumer, legal, and organizational decision-making.

DRIVE ACTION & MOTIVATE CHANGE.

If we want to drive people to take action, we need to understand the dynamics of behavior change: what inspires us to engage, motivates us to participate, and shifts the way we operate?

A Note from Dr. Tartaglione

A note from Dr. Tartaglione

For years, I’ve studied the science of influence: how we move people to think, choose, and behave differently. And now I teach my clients how they can use these insights to become more effective leaders and develop smarter strategies.

I’d love to show you how, too.
