“Collective is the word that comes to mind when I think about Rick. I’ve had the pleasure of working under Rick for two years, during which he grew my skills in consumer package goods analytics. Above all, I was impressed with Rick’s ability to communicate and guide a skilled team that obtained strong work practices and diverse career backgrounds. And, of course, Rick’s strong leadership was a true asset for Sodexo’s Culinary Solutions; Insights & Shopper Dynamics team. ”
