Testimonials

"I have been teaching at Wharton for over 20 years and have had many guest speakers address my students during this period. In all sincerity, I found you to be the single most talented guest speaker that I have ever invited to my class. I asked the students to anonymously submit evaluative comments regarding your visit. In your case, the evaluations were "off the charts" as I knew they would be."

— Eric Siegel, Wharton School of Business

"When my firm "suggested" I work confidentially with a personal coach around "stylistic issues," at first I was offended. I soon changed my mind, because working with Doug Richardson was truly a life-altering experience. He is insightful, practical, committed and patient. Beyond being a good coach, he's a good guy."

— A.T., Senior Partner of a large New York law firm

"At the senior executive level, interpersonal dynamics are complex and sensitive. Doug quickly assesses the situation, and offers practical solutions that result in meaningful change. For executives who are smart enough to recognize their own need for refinement and adaptation, Doug¹s approach will be productive and, often, provocative. For executives who insist upon operating as they have always operated in the past, Doug may be an unwise investment. Doug will make all the difference."

— Howard Blumenthal, CEO, Independence Media and MiND TV

"I'm still high from listening to you. And just as I think everyone should have therapy at least once in their life, I think everybody should meet Doug Richardson. As a motivator and source of information, you are definitely a person to watch."

— Susan Baran, Editor, Philadelphia Business

"I have been reading your articles and following your career advice for over 20 years. I can hear your engaging writing voice both in fresh perspectives and "evergreen" wisdom. Your articles are among the best I've read, and I wanted to thank you for your commitment to others' careers."

— Stavros Ioannis

"Leadership Philadelphia has engaged Doug to present to its senior executive programs for over 15 years because we know we can count on him to hit a home run every time. His ability to present materials and get his points across with relevant humor and quick wit enables him to build rapport with every audience."

— Elizabeth Dow, President, Leadership Philadelphia

"Without your insight I could not have focused my career expectations on what I really want, and I would have replicated past errors. I'm grateful for the powerful focus you helped bring to bear at this point in my career."

— W. John Trang
