It’s a double milestone episode for C-CRETS! This is the 50th episode of the podcast, and Ricky’s recently been appointed Chief People Officer at Wisk, an urban air-mobility company. In this episode, Ricky shares details about his leadership journey and some of the lessons he’s learned along the way. He’ll also pull back the curtain and let you in on his career aspirations for the future.
