preparing students for work & life through leadership

Establish A Solid Foundation

Lead With Purpose
students, Parents, and teachers
- "What if I graduate with a diploma... but no clear direction for my life?"
- "After everything I've done to prepare my child for success, are they truly ready to thrive on their own?"
- "Are we preparing students to pass tests... or preparing them to succeed in life?"
I truly believe leadership is one of the most important life skills everyone should learn.
I'm Rick, and I teach leadership
For more than 20 years, I've helped businesses hire, train, and develop hundreds of employees, giving me a front-row seat to the challenges that both employers and employees face in today's workforce.
Since 2001, I've invested more than $250,000 and countless hours studying, applying, and simplifying the principles of leadership and personal development. One thing I’ve consistently noticed is that the gross lack of leadership the workforce is experiencing is due to the fact that leadership isn’t taught inside of the American education system. Let alone the purpose of the workforce in general.
Today, I prepare students for work and life, through leadership fundamentals not taught inside of the American education system…in as little as 90 days.

Did You Know That...
- According to the human capital trends 2019 report by Deloitte, 41% of business leaders firmly believe their organizations fail to meet the needed leadership standards (leading the social enterprise 2020).
- According to officevibe’s 2020 report on employee feedback, 4 out of 10 workers lose engagement if no feedback is given with 82% being grateful to receive feedback whether positive or negative.
- Gallup’s chief scientist (James K. Harper) said that at least 75% of employees voluntarily leave their jobs due to bad management (Robinson J., 2008) which also influences how engaged they may or may not be.

How Is Ricky T! Academy Different?
-
Ricky T! Academy picks up where the American education system falls short when it comes to educating the youth on the purpose of the workforce and the importance of “leadership.”
With over 74,000 pizza places across America all using the same basic ingredients (cheese, sauce, dough, etc.) the only thing that differentiates one from the other is in where they get their ingredients, ratios, cooking techniques, etc...
I’ve created a unique and powerful step-by-step program (recipe) that’s been handcrafted with over 20 years of applied leadership experience (ingredients) guaranteed to empower new leaders to lead with clarity, confidence and purpose.

It's Not For Me
You know what, it may not be…but what if it is?
-
I definitely appreciate and respect the “It’s not for me”statement because I’ve said the same thing myself over the years.
Truth be told, most everyone will eventually step into a leadership role at some point in our life, which is why I strongly believe everyone should learn the art of leadership. For themselves if not for any other reason.
So the question isn’t whether or not leadership is for you, the real question is, what are you doing to strengthen your current leadership skills?
I Don't Have Time
You know what, you’re probably right.
And I get it. Most business leaders have very little time because they’re usually focused on the day to day operations of their business, leading teams and tending to challenges in their personal life.
What if I told you that creating, saving, and maximizing “time” is just one of the many benefits this program will provide? Could you use more time?
So the question isn’t whether you have enough time or not, the real question is, how much time should you or your company be investing in leadership training?
It’s too expensive
It's too expensive if you’re not getting an ROI that exceeds the initial investment.
When it comes to leadership training a lot of business leaders automatically assume it’s too expensive (or a waste of time) because they’re only focusing on the initial cost instead of the results and ROI they’ll get once the program’s been completed.
Smart investors focus more on the type of ROI they’re going to get rather than the initial cost.
So the question isn’t whether or not Ricky T! Academy’s too expensive, the real question is, How much will uneducated and inexperienced leaders cost you?
I've Never Heard Of
Ricky T! Academy
I know you haven’t because Ricky T! Academy is brand new to the marketplace.
I fully respect and understand any skepticism people might have because I’m the same way when it comes to anything I’ve never heard of or have never experienced before.
However, although Ricky T! Academy is new to the marketplace, the tools and resources being offered have been handcrafted with over 20 years of applied leadership experience.
And let’s remember, Micheal Jordan, Henry Ford, J.K. Rowling and Walt Disney are just a few who weren’t very well known (or unheard of) when they first entered the space they live in today.
So the question isn’t whether or not Ricky T! Academy will deliver the value and results you or your company needs, the real question is, what changes need to be made in order to get the results you want, need and deserve?

My Word
This powerful technique is the first step towards strengthening employee performance.
By getting employees to sign an agreement form it instantly sets in motion a psychological awareness that greatly increases the odds of an employee holding up to their end of the agreement because they “gave their word to it visually and physically.”
The other really nice thing about an agreement form is that it enables you to lean on merits if an employee begins to fall short on their word for any reason, which dramatically reduces resistance or push back.
My #1 Goal
One of the most effective and efficient ways of setting and achieving personal and professional goals.
The fact of the matter is that any person who doesn’t have a goal set for themselves, they’re literally showing up just to collect a paycheck, which means they’re more likely to do just enough (bare minimum) to not get fired.
By infusing personal and professional goals into a legitimate development program you’re guaranteed to increase the odds of employee engagement which in turn increases the overall productivity of your business.
