Meet Richard Medcalf

Hello! I’m the founder of Xquadrant and creator of The 10X Reckoning.

I work with visionary CEOs and entrepreneurs who are already winning—but know it’s time to lead at another level.

After becoming the youngest-ever Partner at a top consultancy and leading strategic initiatives at Cisco, I chose to leave the safe path and step into my own 10X Reckoning. Now I help elite leaders do the same.

This is your moment to play bolder, lead with greater ease, and create your life’s greatest work. Let’s go.

Client appreciation

David Engel

CEO, Drake & Farrell

I've a much clearer picture on my strategy, my goals, and my own inner game. I'd recommend Xquadrant to senior execs who want to make 10X impact.

Armand Arton

Founder & CEO

Thanks to the methodology and Richard's creativity, I've gone deep on myself and my business, and our team has really come together. Recommended for any CEO who wants to become a better leader.

Curt Hopkins

CEO, EPIC

My time with Richard was immensely insightful, helping me deal with high stress situations and observe patterns of my behaviour that need work.

Mikael Sandberg

Founder & Chairman

Richard is a true trusted advisor who quickly adds value at a personal and team level. It's another league compared with programmes I've experienced before.

Robert Bailkoski

Group CEO, Logicalis

I don't think I'd get anything like the same level of pushback or challenge elsewhere. I'd recommend Richard to anyone who wants to focus on the bigger issues.

Pierre-François Thaler

Co-CEO, Ecovadis

Very strong business acumen - we quickly zoom in on the key issues. And there's a real focus on creating real, lasting change.

Kelly Manthey

CEO

It's been a really fulfilling experience. The intermingling of strategic thinking, professional development and personal growth is extremely powerful.

Scott Puopolo

CEO, Telestream

It's been incredibly valuable. There's an intimacy and self-reflection that I haven't got from any other programme I've been in.
