About Rick Kirschner
Hello! I'm Dr. Rick Kirschner. Thank you for visiting my page!
If success is defined by our relationships, I'm a very successful person indeed. I'm in love with my wife, have an amazing daughter, and have surrounded myself with a community of talented and functional friends. I believe in people, in our ability to change, to adapt, to learn, to breakthrough into new realms of achievement. If you're looking for a partner for positive change, then my business, The Art of Change Skills for Life, could be your perfect next step.
I work with individual clients in the areas of positive life change, improving communication, resolving interpersonal conflict, developing persuasive abilities, and enhancing life skills. I'm also a bestselling author, speaker, educator and coach, a faculty member with the Institute for Management Studies, thought leader with Athena Interactive and CanDoGo, and adjunct faculty at Southwest College of Naturopathic Medicine. And I've worked with some of the world's best known organizations, including Heineken, Providence Health, Progressive Insurance, NASA, Starbucks, Texas Instruments, PCMA and more.
