How Rich is building a better working world

“I am building a better working world by assisting companies of all sizes with operationalizing a more effective capital allocation strategy that focuses on assets and businesses with the highest growth potential. I help clients effectively prepare and execute their divestitures, which leads to enhanced shareholder value for the seller and provides a buyer with a business that is ready to operate effectively on Day 1, allowing for greater growth potential and career opportunities under new ownership.”
