"From my earliest days, I've been passionate about the role RAND plays in society and inspired by the people I've worked with and met," Rich said.

Key Points: 
  • "From my earliest days, I've been passionate about the role RAND plays in society and inspired by the people I've worked with and met," Rich said.
  • But I've always wanted the next president of RAND to have the benefit of entering the role at a time of organizational strength and opportunity.That certainly characterizes RAND now."
  • RAND will begin looking for a successor immediately and Rich will remain in place until a successor is installed.
  • RAND Chairman Michael Leiter, former director of the National Counter-Terrorism Center, will lead the search committee.
