Great Leadership is No Accident®
Executive coaching and leadership development for senior executives, their teams and their organizations.
Great leadership is achieved by design, not by default.
Every leader, team and organization is different, so each client engagement is bespoke. We start with your goals and build from there, leveraging your strengths.
The approach is pragmatic and grounded in business results. You learn to see and do things differently, and that shows up in how you lead.

About Dick Massimilian
A consultant's breadth. An owner's perspective.
I've led large-scale change efforts as a consultant in the US and Europe, including integrating acquisitions. And since 2009, my family has owned and operated a business, so I also see leadership from an owner's side. That experience shapes how I coach: practical, candid and focused on what moves the needle.
I hold a BA from Yale and an MBA in Finance from the Wharton School. I'm the author of How to Lead an Effective Meeting (and get the results you want), and I founded Richard Massimilian Consulting in Dallas.

The book · Second edition
How to Lead an Effective Meeting
People don't hate meetings. They hate meetings where nothing gets done. My practical guide shows leaders how to plan, run and follow up on meetings that get results.
A Doctor's Edition, co-written with Ron Blumoff, MD, addresses the meeting challenges physicians face.
Let's talk
Most of my clients come to me through someone they trust. If a colleague suggested you get in touch, or you're evaluating coaches for a leader in your organization, I'd welcome a conversation.
