Robert Pasick

Dr. Rob grew up in the city of Ferndale, Michigan and has resided in Ann Arbor, MI since 1975.

As a senior at Ferndale High School, where race riots were breaking out on the heels of MLK's "I Have a Dream" speech, he created the first Student Relations Council. In 1968 after graduating from the University of Michigan, Rob set out to have a positive impact on an impoverished student population as a teacher in Harlem, NY. Inspired by his students and Dr. King’s teachings, Rob began a graduate program in psychology at Harvard, dedicated to the idea of bringing psychology forward as a method to promote social change in the United States.

Since earning his PhD in 1975, Dr. Rob has been practicing in the Ann Arbor area as a consulting psychologist and executive coach. He is also a lecturer at the University of Michigan Ross School of Business and at the University of Michigan's Center for Entrepreneurship at the College of Engineering.

Rob has appeared on “Oprah” and “The Today Show", and is the founder of Leaders Connect which provides monthly networking events to the community.
