About Exponential Squared
Exponential Squared is a founder-led boutique advisory specializing in development, fundraising, and marketing for nonprofits, mission-driven organizations, and entrepreneurs.
Founded by Rev. Dr. Robert Levey, PhD, MBA, the practice brings nearly 20 years of leadership experience that spans both industry practice and academic study—from leading transformative change as president of The Chase Home to developing the research-supported philosophy that guides the work.

The Philosophy: Spaciology
Spaciology—a research-supported philosophy of space as strategic metaphor—forms the foundation of how Exponential Squared works with clients. Rather than delivering tactics in silos, the approach maps where organizations are, reveals white space others miss, and sequences moves that turn clarity into measurable momentum.
What makes the practice unique is that it doesn’t just do things to do them—clients are taught and encouraged to question their assumptions and deepen their understanding. The full development of Spaciology and its applications can be explored at The Philosopher Files, an ongoing digital collection of essays on strategy, growth, and leadership.
Impact Beyond Advisory
Rev. Dr. Levey is also executive director of UYM Charities, a nonprofit partner advancing community impact. This dual commitment—strategic advisory and charitable work—reflects the belief that sustainable growth and social good are interconnected elements of meaningful work. Whether working with the team on client engagements or rolling up sleeves on community initiatives, Robert’s personal approach remains consistent: philosophy-grade thinking, operator-grade execution.
Robert is also a member of the Independent Philanthropy Referral Advisor Group (IPAR) [IPARTheory.org] and currently serves as senior online adjunct faculty at UNH College of Professional Studies.
