About Richard
Richard is a retired business executive with over 50 + years of professional expertise in communications/behavioral research.
He has worked for major marketers, was a partner in one of the world’s largest research consulting firms, and had his own trend analysis research firm.
After retirement, Richard encountered unexpected challenges and doubts about achieving new goals.
After years of following conventional popular and clinical practices, he became frustrated with the always advised but never defined advice to be “more positive”.
So, Richard applied his expertise and did for himself what he did for hundreds of clients over thousands of projects; he became the research subject to identify how to transform the advice to be more positive into a common sense positivity-building practice.
The results are the Positivity Intelligence Course, with the book Discover Your Positivity Intelligence, the PIQ workbook and the Positivity IQ Target and Scorecard, which includes the 36 lessons to learn to build a positivity habit.
The PIQ course is the evolution from where traditional practices stop: What is more positive? How will I know when I’m positive enough? How can I become more positive in the real world?
