How Richard is building a better working world
Media and entertainment has always been about helping audiences understand their world better and pulling audiences’ emotional levers. This is just as true today as it ever was, even though media and entertainment companies connect to consumers in entirely new ways. Rich helps media companies understand the consumer shifts that are driving the industry, and how they impact the long-term growth and profitability of their businesses.
Outside his role within the EY organization, Rich is a frequent volunteer with the Special Needs Ministry of Bay Presbyterian Church.
