Bio
Julia Olderskog
It is rare to come across a person who is as passionate about pursuing efficiency and improvement opportunities as Richard. Richard and I have worked together on a number of projects at the Norwegian Government Agency for Financial Management (DFØ), including the mapping and removal of timethieves in the payroll department. I was especially impressed with his willingness to question even the most ingrained and established practices, together with his ability to produce innovative, creative and practical ideas and solutions. Richard places a high value on understanding end users´ challenges and needs, whether those of external customers or fellow coworkers, and has an ability to inspire others to pursue improvement initiatives. I recommend Richard to any organisation that wishes to take its business to the next level.
Marcus Wajgiel-Hedkvist
Richard is a well organized person with high integrity and work ethic. He is very good with customer, organize workflow, financing analysis and a good colleague that helps out where it needs. I give my best recommendations to Richard and can definitely see my self working with him again. BR Marcus Hedkvist
