My Passions

David R Frick

Marketer, Innovator, Writer, and Speaker

I put my passions to work

They help me connect with team members, clients, and stakeholders across diverse audiences. 

They help me define and refine who I am while continuing to grow. They help me direct my energies and provide opportunities to re-energize me.

I know that each of these passions comes with a volume/intensity control and constantly make adjustments to meet the needs of different situations.

Here are some of my passions.
PEOPLE: I love working with people with different experiences, perspectives, strengths, skills, education, gender, ethnicity, and background.

Working with this diversity helps assure solutions are designed to connect with people authentically.

It is difficult sometimes. I trip over words and make mistakes. I accept criticism, comments, and corrections – sometimes better than others. Even when it hurts me to hear it, I am grateful for the lesson.

PLANET: I love the outdoors – hiking trails, breathing fresh air, scenic views of natural beauty, photography, travel, and so forth.

I also love the indoors – air conditioning, fast WiFi, convenient grocery shopping, airplanes, and more.

I strive for balance and believe we can make hundreds of little decisions each day that allow us to enjoy it all while also ensuring future generations can as well.

BUSINESS: I love building brands that connect with real people and bring them products and solutions that benefit us all.

I love design-thinking to help solve big challenges with elegance and thoughtfulness.

I love the variety of ways business structures can benefit people, the planet, and profits with authenticity and transparency.

I am inspired by businesses that operate in the following systems:
B-Corp
Public Benefit Corporation
Fair Trade
