Robert Scheinfeld: Biography
For more than 20 years, Robert Scheinfeld has been helping people worldwide create extraordinary results, in less time, with less effort, and much more fun.
As a Transformational Coach, he's the author of a best selling Nightingale-Conant audio program and three bestselling books -- the New York Times bestseller, Busting Loose from The Money Game, and also the bestsellers The Invisible Path to Success and The 11th Element.
Robert captivates audiences through his unique and memorable stories of personal growth, spiritual growth, and transformation and by sharing valuable and empowering insights from his journey to his Ultimate Lifestyle.
Robert is the grandson of Aaron Scheinfeld, Founder and original Chairman of Manpower Inc., the world's largest temporary help service. Manpower is a Fortune 150 company with sales in excess of $18 billion a year.
When Robert was just 12, Aaron began teaching him a very unusual personal growth philosophy, mind-set and set of strategies about what he called "tapping rare power sources in the invisible world." Learning how to tap into this "invisible world," claimed his grandfather, was the secret to his success -- creating True Joy and Financial Abundance. Unfortunately, Robert’s grandfather passed away before he could finish his mentoring.
Robert spent the next 33 years on what he now calls "The Treasure Hunt of the Century" to gather up the missing "puzzle pieces" his grandfather referred to but didn't fully reveal.
Along the way Robert became a multimillionaire (and self-proclaimed stressed-out maniac), plunged $153,000 in debt, and spent seven years struggling before discovering the final missing pieces, busting loose from the limiting and restricting aspects of The Human Game, and beginning to live what he calls his "Ultimate Lifestyle."
His journey of triumph over confusion, anger, desperation and roller-coaster ups and downs qualifies him as an undisputed expert in the arena of business success and personal fulfillment.
Scheinfeld is often referred to as "the wild man of self-help" because his transformational models, ideas, techniques and strategies challenge the status quo of "how to succeed in business and life" in significant ways.
Along his journey, Robert became a master of applying cutting edge sales and marketing methods and has had in-the-trenches experience creating profitable million dollar businesses (on and off the Internet).
For example, Robert helped grow Blue Ocean Software from $1 million to $44 million in less than four years, resulting in the company being named three times to the Inc. Magazine Inc. 500 list. That tremendous growth, accompanied by outrageous profitability, led to Blue Ocean being acquired by software giant Intuit for $177 million. He also played a key role in growing a computer store franchise company called Connecting Point of America from $90 million to $350 million in sales. In addition, the marketing model and system Robert created has been used to pack the room at Tony Robbins multi-media seminars.
Robert's live events, seminars, books, audios, and other learning resources have helped tens of thousands of people in more than 190 countries transform their definitions of success, and the pathways they follow to create True Success and Personal Spiritual Growth in their lives, businesses and careers.
In his new book, Busting Loose from The Business Game, Robert goes beyond the "same old, same old" self-help or personal growth strategies. His process enables you to:
- Tap new sources of power
- See The Truth with unusual clarity
- Act with newfound confidence
- Radically transform the results you produce in every aspect of your life -- and the Joy you experience as you produce them!
Robert writes and works from his home in Virginia, where he lives with his wife Cecily, his daughter Ali, his son Aidan, his dogs Peri and Lulu.
