Colleagues describe him as "I couldn't have asked for a better cross-functional partner than Ian. We work together closely at Lyric and have collaborated on a number of projects. Aside from being incredibly skilled at what he does, and helping the company build out some of its most critical and impactful products, Ian is a highly valued partner to the Operations, Sales, and Program Management teams. He remains patient when explaining complicated technical concepts to members of other teams, takes the time to ensure that everyone is aligned on progress and next steps, and communicates proactively when there are issues or road blocks. Ian is always willing to lend a helping hand when issues arise and never lets anything fall through the cracks. A number of the projects we worked on at Lyric would not have been successful without Ian's contributions. Any Engineering team would be lucky to have Ian, and I would welcome any opportunity to work with him again.", "Put simply - Ian is an incredible teammate and a quiet killer. He will throw himself at the biggest and most important projects, beat you to the office everyday, and smile the whole time he's helping build your company and team. Specifically, Ian’s work enabled Lyric to unlock revenue distribution through a series of complex integrations with a booking channel manager and a corporate distribution system. These are complex and time-consuming integrations that need to be perfect. Messing them up would impact our guests and our operations to no end. When confronted with this challenge, Ian stepped up, and delivered. Ahead of schedule. Ahead of expectations. Ian is a winner. I’d definitely love to work with him again!", and "I, absolutely loved working with Ian Richard. Within the first two weeks of Ian joining Lyric, with my hands full of many competing priorities, he was handed an enormous responsibility to lay foundations in building out an extremely important integration with an external channel manager partner. This integration was no walk in the park -- we're talking an XML api written 2 decades ago, with virtually no documentation, extremely inconsistent behaviors, poor delivery guarantees, but mission critical importance to our business strategy. In addition to the integration itself, the work involved refactoring the very nature of our reservation and financial modeling, which involved of course breaking hidden existing systems assumptions. Ian owned this responsibility and executed brilliantly. The system he created became the foundation for Lyric's platform strategy and was notably for massive improvements in our margins, stability, and strategic capabilities. I can speak endless of his ownership and initiative taking in technical areas, but I notable also is his business acumen and sense of how to create value -with technology- as another part of what makes him a excellent coworker."
