"Bryan Richards was instrumental in planning our Board Retreat and the outcome was the development of a strategic plan. I would see his work as one of the most important steps in our restructuring. [Our gains included] integrating financial data with fundraising activities, developing evaluations for programs, and streamlining communications with the board. Bryan’s intellect and direction affirmed some of my instincts and also helped me avoid mistakes that could have led to inefficiencies and lesser quality work."
Pat Szuch, Executive Director, Prevent Blindness Indiana
"The strategic plan [from Aspen Impact] gives a road map to the board members that they can sink their teeth into and say, ‘This is what I’m a part of. This is how we’re going to reach to where we’re going and how we implement.' Bryan has been a tremendous blessing in being able to understand my thoughts and helping me shape them to a point of implementation. He has also been a very safe person to confide in with regard to the struggles or strains of running the ministry. He has done an incredible job of consulting and coaching the ministry in order to more deeply impact homeless youth. Bryan was awesome in his understanding of Outreach and [its] operations."
Eric Howard, Executive Director, Outreach, Inc.
"[Our] entire organization better understands its current resources and the need for additional funds/services/in-kind donations. As a result of this project, the Greenway will move forward as a cohesive unit with a stronger commitment to succeed. We have prioritized our goals and can focus on them in order rather than use a less effective, more scattered approach.
"Bryan is always so upbeat and positive, always, always has a big smile to share. He brings an air of confidence that helps others to trust his knowledge and experience. Organizational skills, good networking skills, efficient well-planned meetings so as not to waste anyone’s time…these have all helped our project and organization. Bryan also does his homework and spends much more time planning for the meeting than conducting the meeting. Others respect him because Bryan really respects the time that these volunteers have given to attend our meeting. He has never missed a beat. He has helped us to stay on-task throughout."
- Lenette Freeman, Executive Director, Cardinal Greenway
"Bryan will find out your needs and offer his expertise and support. I am absolutely thrilled with the end result and the feedback from my clients and friends has been great. I would like to add that Bryan is a very patient professional. I appreciate Bryan and would highly recommend him."
- Bobbie Ryan, Owner, Simple Tools for a Successful Practice
"Bryan Richards [of Aspen Impact] brings the problem-solving expertise he perfected in PricewaterhouseCooper's consulting practice. He studies root causes and formulates creative solutions. He made substantial contributions in organizational analysis and design for our clients. On one project, the client's senior vice president became so impressed he extended Bryan's involvement to fifteen months across three departments. Another time, Bryan's proposal writing and presentation skills paid off in a multi-million dollar consulting contract for my firm. Bryan's a strategic thinker with an engaging style and a reputation for integrity."
- David Ting, Management Consultant, Pricewaterhouse Coopers Entertainment & Media Practice
