Leadership & Collaborators

Passion and camaraderie are the key ingredients to our culture. Another is our leadership structure. At R2, we believe in decisions to be made close to the level where their impact will be felt and aligned with direct responsibility. This distributed decision-making is carried out by two distinct groups.

Principals, Expert advisors and Associates -- people with proven technical excellence and leadership ability to perform essential project tasks, direct and manage projects, interface with clients, mentor other employees and support other parts of the company.

Managers -- office managers and vice presidents - support the success of our people. They provide the environment and tools that allow our workers to do winning work for our clients.

The selection of our Principals and Associates is something we take very seriously. These are professionals at R2 who have demonstrated outstanding trust, respect, and commitment amongst their peers and have contributed valuable leadership and business acumen to the company and to our clients. Recognizing their achievements within the company is just one way for R2 to ensure our ongoing capacity to provide our clients with the highest level of service and expertise.

Please contact us if you would like to explore partnering with us.
