Award-winning Author


Larry Robertson has a unique ability to step back from the common knowledge and the obvious and see the unobvious. In his award-winning books that to date share 21 honors between them, he has aimed his lens this way: first to explore entrepreneurship, then creativity, followed by leadership in uncertainty, and now the topic that underscores all of these – the power and importance of great questions.

Deeply researched, including rare in-depth interviews with some of the most accomplished leaders on the planet, readers love his books not simply for their eye-opening insights, but for their intimate storytelling style that make you feel a part of the conversation.

Internationally-acclaimed, his books have been described by reviewers as, “utterly captivating,” “wide-ranging and bracingly concrete,” “fantastic and extraordinarily valuable,” and “remarkable.”


The capacity to question is our greatest ad yet least understood human asset. In truth, we’d be dead without our ability to question. This is not how we typically think about questions.

While it’s often said we are a storytelling species, the deeper and more enabling truth is that we are a questioning one. That’s why mastering the art of the ask is so vital.

Praise for Larry Robertson and his award-winning books…

Great Question is the most original book I’ve read in years, if not ever, befitting the original mind of Larry Robertson. It’s a masterstroke of forensics cutting through layers of fuzzy thinking to reveal secrets of mind, philosophy, education, progress, and self-discovery. My own work has seen the benefit of looking at things in different ways, but after reading this I realize I need to raise my game and now have the tools to do it. This powerful book left me with one great question: Why didn’t I think of that?”

The Language of Man is utterly captivating… Backed by wide-ranging research from neuroscience to philosophy and the engaging stories of some of the most creative people on the planet, Robertson shows how creativity is a mindset, a habit, a choice … bringing the vaunted notion of ‘genius’ out of the clouds and into our everyday lives.”
