David Rich

As an entrepreneur, investor, and advisor, I have started and sold several businesses; mentored and funded several start-ups; and served on various boards and trade associations. I founded Palabra, where we gather business leaders for curated conversations about leadership, innovation, change, and impact.As a coach, I am passionate about providing clarity, confidence, and certainty for executives navigating transition in their own businesses and careers. My goal is to provide the kind of perspective and community that I was searching for during my own journey.When not coaching, I aspire to provoke and inspire deep connections in people around the globe with experiences that are transformative. To that end, I organize and host a series of intimate gatherings in cities around the world — events, conferences, and Jeffersonian dinners that ask big questions in an effort to get people to engage beyond the surface and find meaning in their interactions with one another.Stay tuned to learn more about my happenings in 2025.
