“Richard is a wonderful leader and mentor. He was my direct supervisor at Harder Company for nearly five years, where we worked in a close partnership. Richard is energetic, determined, and bold—he can push forward multiple projects at the same time and does not shy away from a challenge! He is skilled at connecting groups with various experience and perspectives, helping drive conversations that are supportive and productive. He recognizes a person’s individual work or communication style while encouraging them to try pushing outside their comfort zone. Richard is also cheerful, friendly, and full of laughter! He is truly a pleasure to work with.”
