Coach

Burke Robinson is pleased to offer decision coaching for students, entrepreneurs, athletes, and others who are facing important decisions in their lives.  He believes in a "Pay It Forward" philosophy where he asks those he coaches to do the same for others at some time in the future.

At StartX, an accelerator for Stanford student entrepreneurs, he helps teams think and act strategically as they create their new business ventures.  He has been a mentor for 6dot Innovations, Airy Labs, Clear Ear, Stem Cell Theranostics, and LessThan3.

For professional sports teams, he assists athletes, coaches, and managers in making critical decisions in their lives both inside and outside of competition.  His assistance to the San Francisco 49ers has been discussed in these videos and articles:
