Bio
Kevin Buck
Brian is an effective leader and one of the most knowledgeable individuals I've ever known. He has the rare gift of explaining complex, technical information in layman's terms in a manner that is both understandable and retainable. When I first came to work for Brian, I had no knowledge of our industry and my ability to perform as the quality manager was in no small part due to his efforts. I'd recommend him for any leadership position, and would endorse him as an expert in all electrical engineering applications. When I reported to him, Brian was the resident expert in all electrical utility matters and has dealt extensively with every major utility in North America.

Brian has an exceptional set of skills to grow and manage difficult businesses in turbulent times. He has great insights ahead of others to see issues and market trends as to the impact it can have and takes measures to mitigate them and to capitalize on them. Additionally, he is a great team builder and inspires dedication and confidence. He has a great grasp of numbers to see effects that are not readily visible in reports but understands their interactions to have his team make them visible and actionable. He has great intuition into technical matters and is excellent in understanding them and sees both risks and opportunities in them. He also has a great ability to understand the capability and limitations of others and hence maximizes their organizational benefits. As a result, he provides that needed spark for both new and existing businesses to finds ways of significantly improving their financial growth and rescuing them from quagmire of oblivion.
