Mark Pollard
About this episode

David Snell and Christopher Owens have worked at The Richards Group in Dallas for fifty years. Combined. That's a long, long time. 

David is TRG's Head of Brand Strategy while Christopher is Brand Strategy Director.

In 2020, The Richards Group hit a crisis. Words said by the agency's founder were reported to the media. The agency lost staff. The agency lost clients.

David and Christopher stayed. 

In this episode, we discuss how the crisis affected the company and its people, how David and Christopher worked through it, and how they are rebuilding their strategy team.
