About Rick:

Rick Maurer is a speaker, author, consultant, and expert on helping leaders avoid resistance to change, identify even deeply hidden resistance, and turn that opposition into support. Rick believes that knowing how to work with resistance is key to turning skepticism and opposition into support for major new initiatives; if leaders understand resistance they can often avoid it before it occurs – or get things back on track when a change is about to derail.

Since the publication of his book Beyond the Wall of Resistance in the 1990s, Rick’s opinion has been sought by The Wall Street Journal, CNBC, NBC Nightly News, Fortune, and many other media outlets. Some of the largest companies in the world ask for his advice on ways to avoid resistance to change and ways to build strong support for changes and other big projects. As the president of Maurer & Associates, a consulting firm that provides expertise in implementing strategic and tactical changes within the workplace, he has worked with numerous organizations, including Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac, AOL, Charles Schwab, Verizon, and NASA.
