The Robert S. Hartman Institute is the only non-profit specifically focused on formal and applied axiological value foundations and legacy (value theory). The Robert S. Hartman Institute has been active for over 40 years, established in 1976, with the single intent of changing the world for the better through understanding the science of values. We collect, compile, preserve, protect, evolve, teach, and share Dr. Robert S. Hartman's value theory and foundations. As a global organization, our members span continents and industries from business people, leaders, executive coaches, psychologists, political scientists, economists, and philosophers.
