“Great workshop and presentation. When our staff first experienced this seminar in Orlando they said others in the Siemens Organization need to see it and learn from it. So we had Richard put on three workshops for Siemens globally. We felt the message and seminar should be experienced not only by Siemens but also with our customers. He also was our Keynote speaker for Siemens Customer appreciation day.

As you might guess, these roles and positions provide practical and eye-opening information to draw upon and share in his storytelling. He always presents his ideas framed in a unified set of tools, enhanced processes, and advanced templates that combine the proven methods and principles into what he calls: 3 R’s: Roles, Responsibilities and Relationships as they relate to the Goal Patterns, Process Patterns and Technology Patterns of companies that are designed to optimize the value chain and monitor corporate governance and leadership.
