Pat Richie Reviews
-
"I wholeheartedly endorse Pat Richie and his consulting partner, Angelica Richie. Their work with our team was transformative. The workshop we had together formed a more stable basis of trust across the team as they expertly pushed the entire team to get out of their comfort zone when engaging with each other. They took a management team skeptical of certain elements of the program through real-life examples that not only got the team to buy in the new program, but have this leadership team deploying the program to their own teams given the value they have found. Pat and Angelica facilitated improved teamwork, leading to greater organizational clarity. We were finally all rowing in the same direction, and the result is quickly improved performance across the board. Pat and Angelica's insights and guidance were invaluable.”
