One operator, not a team
Every engagement is delivered by Rick personally.
No partner who sells it and associate who delivers it. No handoffs. Rick takes a maximum of two engagements at a time, so the person you meet is the person in the seat. When both are full, new work waits.
Rick Ables, Principal
Former Chief Growth Officer at VIEMed. Embedded CEO of Dowdle. Senior Director at ADP.
