Hi, I'm Rich Smalling. I'm a

In 2020, I retired after 25 years as an operating CEO. Retirement for me wasn't about leisure time - it was about looking for new challenges, learning new things and finding new ways to make the world a little better. I wrote a book about my experience with thriving organizations & what great leadership looks like. I helped launch a nonprofit collaboration fund. I'm a board member, advisor, coach and mentor. I offer consulting services involving thriving organizations, leadership, collaboration and M&A.
