Genius World was founded by Robert Duggan, one of America's leading entrepreneurs and an active humanitarian. His success as an entrepreneur and innovator spans over five decades. His leadership has yielded numerous profitable businesses. A recurring member of Forbes Top 500 U.S. Billionaires, Bob is continually seeking to create real and positive change by drawing on the best in himself and others while shaping an environment and business culture that encourages others to experience the joy of creating. Ten years ago, Bob was introduced to the concept that the world’s greatest geniuses all shared 24 specific characteristics. Driven by a strong desire to change conditions in life for the betterment of all, Bob dug deeper and found that the origin of the word, genius, is in fact a person’s innate ability, of inborn nature and a guardian spirit. Any person can develop these characteristics by observing them, studying them and practicing in any area where they want to operate at a genius level. It’s a matter of wanting to do it. With this discovery, Bob brought this basic principle and The 24 Characteristics of Genius© to his staff at Pharmacyclics. The increased productivity and morale was astounding. When Bob took the helm at PCYC the company was worth $14 million with 40 staff, a mere 8 years later with 700 hundred staff Bob negotiated to sale of PCYC for over $21 billion. He attributes the company’s success and growth to the application of these 24 characteristics. Bob then visualized that since he got this to work so well with so many others, it must be brought to everyone on the planet. He thus formed the company Genius Inc. to make that happen and leave a legacy that the planet deserves.
