"I realized Richard's presentation had connected with the participants but it was not until days following the staff golf tournament that I realized how much they took away from it.  While most golf tournaments are memorable for anecdotal golf tales, our event was much more valuable because days later staff members were still referencing keys learning from the presentation.

Richard exceeded the expectations of our management team by introducing an element of professional development that took a standard company golf day to a whole new level."
