Whether she is helping people embrace their full identities so they show up as their authentic selves, creating thriving workplaces or being a coach that helps someone advance in their career, her mantra is that if you connect to something greater than the task at hand and are passionate about people, we all can make an impact in the lives of everyone around us.

Stacie Richter
Fostering a welcoming, family-oriented work environment and tackling each day with a positive attitude is what led Stacie to join the Beacon Mobility Senior Leadership Team in 2022 as VP of People and Culture. She brings passion, a deep care for people and an ambitious desire to make Beacon the very best place to call home.
Before building her career around company culture and all things people, Stacie and her husband Mike were proud owners of Transit Team, Inc., where they grew the company into the largest paratransit transportation provider in Minnesota, while maintaining a family feel where their employees and passengers were at the heart of every decision they made. Stacie never imagined finding a partner like Beacon Mobility that cares as much about their people as she and Mike did. Beacon’s core values and a desire to do things differently is what made this partnership such a special one.
In her former life, Stacie worked in TV news as a news anchor in Washington State, covering local and state news, as well as having the privilege of making storytelling a career. While it was a childhood dream to have a seat on an anchor desk, Stacie had no idea that the universe would serendipitously lead her to her life’s true passion. After losing her job during the Great Recession in 2008, she moved back home to Minneapolis and soon found herself working alongside Mike at Transit Team. She quickly realized that her ability to make an impact at Transit Team far outweighed anything she would do in TV news. Mike and Stacie bought Transit Team three years later, and the rest is history!
When she’s not working, you can find Stacie on her yoga mat or in the kitchen where her world revolves around all things food. Her fall revolves around college football and cheering on Ohio State, a true love that she grew up with from her Buckeye parents. Her best days are spent with Mike and their boxer Mali cruising around Lake Minnetonka, on the Emerald Coast on the Florida panhandle or in her happy place in the mountains of Montana. She is also the president of the Indiana University Alumni Association of the Twin Cities and is incredibly proud to be a Hoosier for life!

Edith has developed and implemented various projects and programs, including talent management plans, performance management systems, training, and development, onboarding, recruiting, diversity, inclusion, and culture transformation. As a woman and Latina, her role in talent management is especially close to her passion for creating a work culture that embraces diversity, inclusion, and provides opportunities for all employees to reach their full potential. Edith is devoted to employee development and firmly believes that leadership is a journey and not a destination and that journey should consist of constant learning.
Edith enjoys time with family traveling, outdoor activities, and downtime reading a good book when not working.
