Henderson Engineers CEO Named in Ingram’s 250 List of Prominent Executives

Ingram's Magazine

Rich Smith, president and CEO at Henderson Engineers, has been named in the 2021 “Ingram’s 250” list by Ingram’s magazine, a leading business publication in the Kansas City, Mo., region. The list showcases the 250 most powerful regional business leaders based on a variety of criteria including their companies’ influence and their personal involvement in local civic and corporate affairs.

Smith’s profile briefly highlights his remarkable journey overcoming an inability to walk at an early age to leading an engineering firm with more than 900 employees across the country. Smith also shares insight into why his parents are his childhood heroes, why he loves both dogs and cats, and why the late 1950s and early 1960s would have been an enjoyable time to live.

The feature can be found on page 90 in the special edition Ingram’s 250 issue of the magazine. A free digital copy can be viewed at https://bit.ly/3alGzw0.
