Monopoly® Strategy
Favorite game piece:
GS: the Scottie dog, since there was no cat (2013 the cat was voted in)!
CR: the Top Hat
The property (ies) I wanted to purchase:
CR: Boardwalk, of course. The payoff was excellent!
GS: Any of the Orange properties, statistically the most landed on properties so you can collect a lot of rent!
Did you usually win or lose?
CR: I won and lost but had fun with family and friends playing the game.
GS: I always lost to my dad since he knew about the Orange properties!

Funniest Experience
In one of our first meetings, Carolyn and I were dressed in the same colors for both our jackets and pants and we wore the same shoes. The potential client asked if there was an RSA uniform standard.
Unusual Request
In a remote location in Canada, we looked at how to create a central production facility for a very small group of
hospitals with tons of logistical challenges.
The hospital was about 400 miles
from the nearest larger town. And the kitchen had the morgue refrigerator
next to its refrigerator…don’t go into the wrong door!
Airline Miles Traveled
4 million airline miles to see and work with our clients, or roughly 160 trips around the earth
Favorite Service to Provide
Carolyn - Complex, challenging projects especially those we take from strategy through completion. I also like to integrate nutrition into the foodservice operations puzzle.
Georgie - Anything that has a financial or statistical component. I love to see projects get funded due to the work we do painting an impartial financial story.
