MCAA’s National Education Initiative (NEI) Seminars bring our best programs to your local association or your company thanks to instructors like C. Richard Barnes, an experienced mediator and trainer. Richard helps emerging and high potential leaders build the skills they need to succeed in mechanical contracting.

Richard Barnes & Associates, LLC, a consulting firm which provides leadership training and development, dispute resolution services, dispute resolution systems design, facilitation, coaching and negotiation skills training to a cross-section of industry, labor, private, public, and service organizations, both nationally and internationally.
Richard teaches those who attend the Leadership Access Institute (LAI) Seminars to:
- Build field leadership
- Manage change
- Think critically
- Listen actively
