What others think about Rick

"I have known Rick for over ten years. Rick puts incredible energy into any client engagement - I am always happy to refer him to companies I come into contact with as I know he will do a thoroughly professional job, and always over-delivers."

Craig Martin

Dynam Capital Limited

Rick has provided over 10 hours of team coaching sessions to me and my team at Tribee.vn . Thanks to Rick's coaching, we have managed to define our team purpose statement, team mission, corporate values, and create a client value proposition map. All within 4 coaching sessions which appeared to me to be an extremely efficient and successful process. Thanks to Rick's coaching, we’ve managed to understand better our core motivation to run the business. With that, we have successfully evolved our business model. It led us to winning new customers almost immediately after, which is something we had struggled with for 6 months prior to the engagement with Rick. I can’t thank enough for the impact Rick has left on our team and the business!

Pawel Gorski

CEO at Tribee

Rick is an amazing coach and inspiring leader. I am humbled to have the opportunity to work with him personally during my first placement as a marketing intern, for an international company. Thanks to Rick's committed attention to his employees, including the interns, I had a very uplifting 3 month virtual internship. I made numerous unforgettable connections and learnt so many things about marketing in the safe learning environment that he has created so meticulously. Most importantly, I've grown a lot in terms of personal development, owing much to the Kaizen culture that Rick endorses to his employees. I believe that any group led by Rick will end up in a good place. Thank you for letting me work at TRG International for the past 3 months!

Inside Sales Representative at DELL Technologies

Rick is a hugely influential director in our company. He has all the qualities that I admire in a leader - people management, ambitions and a great strategic mind. Moreover, despite being the top top director, he is always open to staff for conversation and feedback, never takes them for granted. He is the figure that inspires everybody in the company to try their best in their daily work. Overall, he is a type of leader that I always look up to throughout my career ladder.
