Your 8-Week Journey Through The Zoo
How The 8-Week Experience Works
Live Virtual Teaching Sessions
Observer, Inner Circle, and Private tiers all participate in five live virtual teaching sessions with Richard. These sessions run bi-weekly during Weeks 1, 3, 5, and 7, with a final capstone session in Week 8 to complete the journey.
Integration Weeks
During the alternating weeks (Weeks 2, 4, 6, and 8), Inner Circle and Private tier participants engage in small-group virtual integration sessions. These sessions deepen understanding, apply the teachings, and allow live behavioral insight in groups capped at 15 participants.
A Complete 8-Week Arc
This structure ensures Observer participants experience a full eight-week journey through live virtual sessions, while Inner Circle and Private tiers receive additional integration, reflection, and personalized application without compressing the learning.

Who The Zoo Is For (And Isn’t)
This Experience Is For…
- Leaders Managing People: Executives, founders, managers, and team leads who want to understand behavior instead of reacting to it
- Entrepreneurs & Visionaries: People building businesses, teams, or movements who need to communicate clearly under pressure
- Coaches, Mentors & Facilitators: Those who guide others and want a deeper framework for reading personality dynamics in real time
- Teams Struggling With Communication: Organizations experiencing friction, misunderstanding, or repeated conflict patterns
- Individuals Committed To Real Personal Growth: People who are done labeling others and ready to look at their own patterns first
This Is Not For You If…
- You’re Looking For A Quick Personality Quiz: The Zoo is not a test, a label, or a shortcut
- You Want To “FIX” Other People: This work starts with self-awareness, not diagnosing others
- You’re Unwilling To Reflect On Your Own Behavior: Growth requires ownership, not blame
- You Want Theory Without Application: Everything here is designed for real-world use — at work, at home, and in leadership
- You’re Not Open To Being Challenged: The Zoo reveals patterns you may not expect — including your own
It’s about understanding how you show up — and why it matters.
Why The Zoo Is Different
Most approaches react to people. By separating the person (the constant physical presence) from the personality (the emotional presence that shifts throughout the day), you stop mislabeling people and start understanding what’s actually driving behavior in the moment. Judgment fades and clarity increases almost immediately.
Because behavior always reveals truth, you stop guessing intent and start seeing patterns already happening — in meetings, conversations, conflict, and silence. Nothing has to be forced. What’s real becomes visible.
The Zoo reframes friction as a leadership awareness gap, not a people problem. When you understand how agendas collide and how permission reinforces behavior, frustration turns into insight. What felt personal becomes predictable — and manageable.
When people feel seen instead of corrected, resistance drops. When leaders recognize their own patterns first, communication shifts. Change comes from understanding what’s already happening — and choosing a different response.
Why Richard Built The Zoo
Richard didn’t build the Zoo to explain people.
He built it because leaders were misreading them.
Over years of working with executives, teams, and high-pressure environments, he saw the same breakdown repeat itself.
Good people being labeled “difficult.”
Conflict escalating because intent was assumed.
Leaders reacting emotionally to behavior they didn’t understand.
The issue was never motivation or attitude.
It was interpretation.
People don’t show up the same way all day. They shift under pressure, safety, authority, and resistance.
When leaders react to the person instead of recognizing the personality in motion, clarity disappears — and conflict takes over.
The Zoo was created to solve that problem.
Not with labels.
Not with tests.
Not with prescriptions.
But by teaching leaders how to observe behavior without judgment, separate person from personality, and respond with awareness instead of reaction.
The Zoo doesn’t tell you what to do.
It teaches you how to see.
Once you see clearly, behavior — yours and theirs — changes naturally.
It was about changing how leaders see them.
