The Story Behind the Step
A Personal Quest for Clarity
I’m Richard Stephenson, and I founded RichardStep not as a business, but as a solution to a universal problem: the overwhelming feeling of being lost in a world full of choices. I was tired of theoretical, confusing personality assessments and wanted something simple, practical, and immediately useful.
My mission became clear: to synthesize decades of research into actionable tools—like the Strengths Aptitude Test and the DOPE Bird Personality—that give you concrete direction for your career and life. This is not ‘mumbo jumbo’; it’s science-backed insight designed for real-world growth.
We’re here to help you skip the years of guessing and jump straight to the clarity you deserve. Thank you for being here.
