My name is Bob Knowlton, Jr. I’m a Fortune 500 trained strategist. I have a history of proven success as both a senior corporate executive and as a leadership coach guiding individuals and every-sized businesses to focus on and achieve increased “reality-based”, insight and capability. I created Online Leadership Coaching (OLC) at the request of numerous individuals and businesses that I worked with and helped. OLC was created with one simple overarching purpose in mind, to provide leadership coaching for individuals and businesses that exceeds value and most important, making it available at a price anyone or organization could easily afford.

With OLC I have accomplished my purpose. For just pennies a day OLC can change your life and expand your personal and professional capacity for accomplishment. OLC focuses on simple messages, shared stories and insights that provide a powerful message that uplifts, inspires and awakens us to explore and realize our better-selves.








“Wonderful and fun website! The OLC, Our Character Matters eWorkshop is full of proven, powerful, life-changing principles that bring about quick positive, meaningful personal transition. Every person and business should join the OLC experience, and share these qualities that enhance and expand opportunity, possibility, and potential.”

Dr. Blaine Wilson, Emeritus Professor, Central Washington University

There is an overwhelming need for objective, incisive help for developing reality-based, strategic/leadership vision and execution. Unfortunately gaining this level of vision is elusive, time consuming, and expensive. Costs for developing effective, executable “reality-based” vision can cost from more than $1,000,000 for large scale, multi-dimensional implementation annually to $10,000 annually for simple and basic individual/strategic vision preparation for smaller applications and businesses.

An old adage says: “You can’t hold your own mirror while identifying, planning, and executing your most critical activities.” Every individual and company falls prey to this pitfall. Everyday we make our most important decisions, usually by ourselves, often times based upon unclear, vision founded upon a distorted and inaccurate reflection of reality.

Today business leaders, executives, and entrepreneurs, interestingly, are aggressively seeking out different types of solutions to counteract this dilemma. A significant example of this corrective pursuit is that the number one product and service sought after on the internet is currently “how to” information. As one senior executive and client said:
“I’m looking for cost-effective, fast resources and ideas that spur my creativity, and allow me to recreate, and build the concept internally so I understand it viscerally...I don’t read with an, agree or disagree perspective. Instead, I read for the experience, to plant within myself a seed of creativity”.

OLC is an online, solution and guidance source for clarifying ideas, and facilitating real objectives that create the most positive impact for accomplishing things of greatest importance. You can be a member of OLC for only $16.50 per month, that’s just 54¢ a day.

"Bob Knowlton has an incredibly insightful approach to enhancing a person's natural inclinations. The ideas, couched in impelling language, capture the imagination and lead you to potentially mind-bending experiences. The processes involved gently provoke you to re-examine what you think you know and what you need to do to confront your deepest suspicions about where you should be going. Here is an opportunity for you to seek and to know. You won't want to miss the fireworks."
Dr. R. Wayne Pace President of the International Communication Association (1971)
President of the Academy of Human Resource Development (1993)
Professor Emeritus of Organizational Leadership, Brigham Young University (1996)





Dr. Peter M. Senge in his book The Fifth Discipline wrote: “Collectively, we can be more insightful, more intelligent than we can possibly be individually.” To realize the strength of Dr Senge’s insightful concept regarding the influencing power of interdependence to expand possibility, opportunity and potential, OLC created an interactive membership learning website for shared individual/strategic vision that keys upon the following Five Points for Sustained Interdependence:

Point One - Nobody is as Smart as Everybody.
OLC believes that the most powerful direct and effective source for this level of vision and execution is generated as a result of the synergistic benefit achieved interdependently through diverse experiences participating, sharing, and focusing as one.

Point Two - Learn through Successful, Unique Learning Experiences of Others.
OLC is an intellectual community of experienced individuals who, working as an “extended team” sharing learning and insight, capture and communicate through an open and diverse forum of dialogue. This community is a unique and applicable vehicle that effectively expands learning for individual/business awakening, vision, and execution.

Point three - Expand Leadership Focus, Insight, Capacity, and Performance.
Energized, well-focused, and insightful strategic vision, planning, and execution align and pull people and organizations up to meet higher performance standards. It is the vehicle for transitioning important possibilities, opportunities and potential into reality.

Point Four - Add the Power of Objective, Outside Expertise to your Strategic Team.
Provide a unique and powerful opportunity to join, participate, share, learn, and ultimately benefit from the collective strategic mind of numerous successful individuals. No matter the size of the business, challenged by ever increasing business complexities, objective outside executive perspective and guidance are readily available through OLC to help support critical strategic decision making.

Point Five - Encourage and Value Unique Contributions Provided by OLC Membership.
Readily communicate important transitioning ideas that benefit the members. Inspire and energize membership to focus on shared learning. Participate and share in the success of others. Interact with members constructively, courteously, and respectfully.

Applying the objective vision and foundation created by the Five Points for Sustained Interdependence, members from varying backgrounds pool and share their wealth of stories, ideas and experience with other members through OLC Interactive Learning Triangle.

"Working with Bob was very insightful, fun, and successful. He personally gave me effective guidance and direction that I needed to undertake in order to get our Company through a challenging, difficult time. During our first consultation session, the questions that he posed were hard-hitting, insightful, and penetrating from both a personal and business standpoint. It became clear instantly, that Bob knew what he was doing, what strategic approach we needed to take, and how to execute that approach.

Bob is the “real deal” his website is the “real deal”. I recommend OLC to any individual or company facing the challenge of growth and change who want to insightfully create exciting opportunities for reaching the next level. I consider involvement with OLC and its supportive eWorkshop sessions a must for our Company as we chart a new effective strategic direction."
Ladd Eldredge, CEO,  Genesis Media Company
