TORONTO, ON / ACCESSWIRE / June 13, 2022 / RYAH GROUP Inc. (CSE:RYAH) is pleased to announce important and substantial progress following the first two months tenure of Dr. Dave Richards, CEO. He summarizes the progress, as follows:
"As a cofounder of the MIT Innovation Lab, I have been exposed to many of the most innovative ideas and enterprises ever conceived of. When I was approached by the lead investors in RYAH, asking me to become the new CEO, I wanted to understand the business model, the WHY, the WOW factor, but also what had gone wrong. Most enterprises fail to deliver their potential, due to one or more of the seven sins of innovation - the title of my book. Looking at RYAH through this critical lens, I could see various issues that needed to be corrected. Although I hadn't been looking for employment, I also clearly saw how my experience and skills as a strategic innovation leader could help RYAH achieve its massive potential.
"I empowered and strengthened the leadership team. I encouraged creative conflict and debate, leading to greater clarity on direction. I engaged the team in developing a new sense of purpose, and in developing a strategic plan to drive success and value. I cut unnecessary costs, improved communications and focus on priorities, and operational effectiveness. I have a great team around me, contributing to this journey - François Desrosiers, CFO; Jordan Medley, VP of Global Products; Sophie Kleshchuk, AVP of Global Operations; Jules Gagnon, AVP of Investor Relations; a reinvigorated and enlarged sales and business development team; and a great technology development team, supported by excellent research and idea generation. The bottom line is that the business needed some course changes, and we're now on track to generate near-term revenues, profits, and returns on the investments that have been made based on faith in our mission - to empower decision-making, insights and innovations for a healthier future through our ecosystem of connected devices, applications, and Big Data."
