Colleagues describe him as "I enthusiastically recommend Steven Richmond for any position or post-graduate program that values in its candidates a high level of intellectual curiosity and rigor, an exceptionally discerning mind, superior writing and presentation skills, an intrinsic motivation to produce high-quality work, and a character that builds excellent rapport with colleagues or fellow team members. I had the pleasure of working with Steven for approximately two years as his direct manager in a research and publishing division of The Freedonia Group. Steven was hired to analyze quantitative and qualitative data and produce market research reports for a client base of investment banks, private equity firms, manufacturers, distributors and non-governmental organizations. He reached a high level of quality and effectiveness in record time, such that I advanced him quickly to a leadership position in which he critically reviewed the analysis of his peers before publication. Steven is a gifted writer. He and the rest of our group began to write blogs to promote our analysis in mid-2016, and they became the perfect showcase for our division’s work. Steven published particularly intelligent, well-crafted pieces. After a time, I also assigned Steven the day-to-day management of our knowledge management system, because Steven showed an appreciation for the documentation and dissemination of discoveries or best practices across our group, and he consistently demonstrated superb organizational skills and attention to detail. Steven’s intelligence extends to his sense of humor, and I appreciated the wit and funny stories that he contributed to division events such as our monthly lunches. He helped an otherwise intensely serious team relax, enjoy each other’s company and remain a cohesive group. "
