I think the world of Richard Lira and recommend him very highly. I had the good fortune of directly managing Richard for well over ten years while I was VP of Sales at both A&E - the Graphics Complex and Thomas Printworks. Richard has the unique and desirable skill set of being completely comfortable and qualified with managing the operations side of a printing business, or the sales side of the business. As part of his job as a printshop manager before he worked for me, it was imperative he understood operational workflow and have the ability to identify and implement efficient work processes. He effectively did this and this also contributed to his success as a Sales Manager. His operational background facilitated his success as a sales manager and his ability to ask the right questions and his ability to work in tandem with operations to be successful. Richard is a wonderful manager. He is empathetic, a good listener, and incredibly fair. He sets high expectations and manages based on activities and numbers. He is an excellent coach and mentor. He sets a tremendous example for his team. He is generally one of the first people in the office and one of the last to leave. He is continually learning and striving to be better. I truly enjoyed working with Richard. He is a true printing management professional with a strong business acumen and work ethic.

Richard Lira is an extraordinarily diverse craftsman of successful Graphic-based business models. I’ve known him for nearly 30 years, where I’ve worked with him as a team member, sold to him as a customer and purchased from him as a vendor. At each endeavor he never failed to meet or exceed my expectations. I’ve witnessed his abilities for building production team environments as well as sales expansion and business model improvements where he exceeded expectations of various industry owners. Richard’s business acumen exceeds that of most high-level entrepreneurs as demonstrated in his various roles, acting as if it were his own business. Taking charge, managing growth, understanding the latest in technology while building sound business teams. His managerial expertise and high industry knowledge, in conjunction with his positive goal achieving character, make most want to work with or for him.
