Our organization recently engaged RLR Leadership Consulting for a comprehensive leadership development program, and the results have been transformative. Given that we serve a Native American population, it was crucial for us to work with a consulting firm that understood and respected our cultural context. RLR Leadership Consulting demonstrated a deep respect and understanding of our Native American community. They took the time to learn about our cultural values, traditions, and specific challenges. This cultural competence was evident in their tailored recommendations and the way they engaged with our team.

I spent 25 years in the classroom and the last three in administration. I've been fortunate to work in a school district that has partnered with Randy the last two years and his logic and compassionate approach are attributes that I try to apply to my school each day. There are so many things you don't realize as a teacher that an administrator has to deal with each day. I'd recommend partnering with Randy and his team as you enter into the world of education leadership.

Dr. Randy Russell has distinguished himself as a learner-centered leader, an advocate for best practices in education, and as a professional committed to strengthening education locally, regionally, and nationally. Serving in a variety of roles from Superintendent, professional mentor, association leadership roles, and author - Randy consistently brings a message of hope, an emphasis on relationships, and a relentless focus on improvement accomplished collaboratively through partnerships.
A gifted speaker and facilitator, I would encourage any school, district or educational organization to contact Randy and explore how his passion and expertise could be of service.

More
Randy Russell is a dynamic speaker and compassionate leader. He gets us as leaders because he is one. He knows what we deal with and his attitude on how to attack our day is about how we take care of ourselves and how we can sharpen our saw. I met Randy when he was leading a group with Project Leadership and we were immediately bonded because he understood what I couldn't say about where I was at in my struggles as a principal and leader. His remembers things that we talk about and checks on me to encourage me but he is also vulnerable in sharing his own challenges. He has gone through school shootings and knows every level of educational leadership. He subtly challenges me and other leaders with a simple statement of "as evidenced by?" Whether it is success or a challenge we are facing he turns it towards the data because it isn't as personal as we make it. I can call him and he is there for me.

In a world full of PD courses and speakers you can try, Randy Russell needs to be at the very top.

If you are looking for someone with a great message and brings the energy, Randy Russell is your speaker. He includes the participants, asks questions, brings humor and understanding all in one. His message from his book “The 3 Ships' ' is clear, how do we build our relationships, how do we learn about our team, the people we work with everyday and create working relationships, with some of those lasting a lifetime. Randy came to our WA State Association of Pupil Transportation (WAPT) and made us move with each other, had us network and learn about one another. His message can be taken anywhere, for any group or team. Thank you Randy!

Randy provided leadership training in my district to a combined group from around the area, and he was FANTASTIC! The training was engaging, and full of practical nuggets that my team was able to put to use immediately. In fact, of all the trainings we have done, this one is by far the most talked about, and used nearly two years later. The leadership has been elevated in my district by having Randy here, and I could not recommend RLR Consulting more highly!! The only reason I gave 5 stars, is because 10 was not an option!
