VP of Operations at Glass and Marker

He was great to work with - he was fun, always met timeline dates and we always came in at or below budget.

Donna Gearhart

Data Process Specialist at CertaPro Painters

The phrase “trusted advisor” can sound like a cliché, but with Rich as my general manager for 6 years, it is the most accurate way to describe our relationship. He has been with me through many ups and downs, and I have always been able to rely on Rich for an objective, rational, and well-thought-out perspective.

Tony Adrizzone

He is always willing to help others and loves solving problems and overcoming challenges. One of the true leaders that put people first.

Bruce Sadowsky

VP of Franchise Development at BrandONE

He has always done a great job of one-to-one coaching. facilitating meetings, and group training. One of his greatest skills is asking insightful questions and then helping people create and problem-solve. There is no doubt that my business is much better for having had Rich coach, ask questions, challenge and give feedback to myself and my key staff.

Rich is my go-to person to get strategic advice on how to address problem-solving in a multilayered scenario. He has the keen ability to ask great questions and validate what he is hearing to provide his perspective and options on how to tackle an item. Rich is a creative, strategic thinker.

Valerie Eichorn

Franchise Development Marketing Manager at The Goddard School

He is the person I trust most to help set a course on a new strategy, personal growth opportunity or rollout of an organizational change. He connects the dots better than most people and clearly communicates (and holds healthy tension around) next steps or commitments. He does all of this while keeping interactions energized, upbeat and fun.

Rich Volp

VP of Operational Excellence at CertaPro Painters

Rich has challenged my husband and me in ways we have never been challenged before. He has made a huge impact on us as individuals in both our professional and personal lives. He is a great listener, and I truly feel that he cares about us as people.

Scott Shaw

Partner at Core Acceleration

Rich is a holistic leader of people. Meaning that he does an excellent job of seeing (and caring for) the whole person, not just their results!

Jeremy Morgan

Brand President at Groovy Hues

I have never had a better collaborator, mentor, leader, or coach. He does not lead "at" people. He leads "with" them, and I experienced this firsthand. His first priority was our relationship and building and maintaining trust. Because I felt supported by him, I took risks, was more assertive, and was open to his coaching.
