Richard DapraRichard's introduction to leadership was as an officer in the U.S. Marine Corps. He holds a PhD in industrial psychology and his first post-doctoral job was with Development Dimensions International (DDI), a fledgling assessment and leadership develoment company, where he was one of four employees. In three years, DDI employed 50 people and now, 1,100 associates. He then turned his sights to his own assessment company, Resource Analysis and Development where he stayed until one of his clients, Pitney Bowes, lured him away. He spent nearly 30 years working with other Fortune 100 companies including Aetna and Liberty Mutual. His focus was working with CEO's and business unit heads on the acquisition, assessment, and development of talent. Later, he joined Jonas Akerman at BTS and built the now global assessment practice. Richard enjoys spending time with his children and grandchildren as well as playing golf, fishing, and volunteering with several veterans' organizations. Read More Read Less
