Founder / Former CIO / Giver of Damns / Struggling Gardener
Nick Richtsmeier is the founder of CultureCraft®, a growth strategy consultancy, and creator of Trust-Made GrowthTM, a system for helping leaders break free from antiquated growth models that take more than they give and instead build ventures rooted in value and connection. He’s advised companies from startup to $100M+ to eschew marketing fads, and focus on humanistic essentials to build networks of partners, customers, and prospects they love. His 84-Point Trust Inspection surfaces the invisible incentives that erode culture, clarity, and opportunity. From his quiet Iowa acreage, Nick helps leaders build what actually lasts— outside the noise, beyond the playbook, and in defiance of the rigged game.
