Meet Rob
Rob Levesque, P.Eng., EMBA is the Co-Founder and Chief Technology & Strategy Officer at Bishop & Royal, where he helps organizations navigate complexity with systems thinking, data-informed strategy, and pragmatic execution. Rob’s work sits at the intersection of engineering, analytics, and organizational design, shaped by more than fifteen years across enterprise software, quality engineering, product strategy, and applied research.
Rob’s current focus is data-informed strategy and governance, how evidence, incentives, and institutional design shape better decisions. He is completing a Master of Science in Business Analytics with work in forecasting, time-series analysis, and communicating quantitative insight for leadership decisions, and he completed MIT’s Architecture & Systems Engineering program in model-based systems engineering and quantitative methods in 2024. Together with his Executive MBA (Honors) and Professional Engineer (P.Eng.) designation, this gives him a strong platform for policy analysis, evaluation design, scenario planning, and systems-level architecture.
At Bishop & Royal, Rob partners with mission-driven teams across sectors on strategic foresight, systems mapping, and data research, building clear road-maps, rigorous analytic frameworks, and credible evidence for boards, executives, and public-interest decision makers. His toolkit spans Python and SQL with modern analysis and visualization practices, and his approach is collaborative, ethical, and grounded in real-world application. Rob’s interests sit squarely within technology governance, data policy, and evidence-based institutional design, the same themes that guide his consulting practice and motivate his application to doctoral study in global governance.
Outside of work, he keeps current with advances in AI and machine learning and enjoys being active and engaging in baseball, skateboarding, and surfing.
