I have known Rick for over fifteen years and recently had the opportunity to bring him in on a major leadership development initiative.  Rick is an excellent consultant.  He blends expertise in organizational dynamics and change management with the ability to advise and coach executives to maximize their personal and professional impact.  Naturally thoughtful and empathetic, Rick cares deeply about his clients and is focused on their success.  He's a great source of fresh and creative thinking balanced with "been there/done that" wisdom and a pleasure to work with.

Rick supported us in a complex project involving cross-business and cross-functional collaboration to drive revenues in a new business development effort.  Rick quickly got up to speed on our organization and opportunities.  He helped us structure a practical approach to manage across the various stakeholders, and for driving towards results.  Rick shows a deep understanding of organizational and interpersonal issues, and brings to bear his experience and wisdom in solving client problems.  Our team and I look forward to working with him again, and recommend him to other organizations looking for outside organization development help.
