Part 1 of 2: Over the Fence with Gregory Richards, Gregory A Richards, PC . Greg is an attorney here in Kerrville and also serves as a committee member for our local EIC. Greg has provided legal services for an array of businesses over the course of 25 years in practice in Kerrville. Grab your note pad folks! These episodes are packed full of exceptional business advice. One of my favorite take aways from Part 1 is “Successful leaders see the opportunities in every difficulty rather than the difficulty in every opportunity. Resilient people view problems as challenges and opportunities for growth rather than as threats.”
