Bio
Emily Seegmiller
Years down the road, I log into LinkedIn and seek out Brian to jot a quick recommendation. I have never worked for someone quite like Brian. He is well-liked and respected by all, educated, knowledgeable, humorous, good-tempered, balanced, and so many more wonderful behaviors. As far as Human Resources experience, he's done most of it, some in different languages and definitely in different countries - but no matter where it is being done, he does things right. And he does it by his leadership. He loves and cares for his people. He has expectations of and desires their growth, holds them accountable, and communicates clearly. He is quiet, one to wait for an answer instead of assume, or enjoy too much the sound of his own voice. He is a mentor. He teaches to ask questions. He knows how to motivate in ways that are sustainable. Above all, he is most humble and kind. I have been very, very blessed to know and have worked for Brian Baxter, as are all who work with and for this man.

I reported directly to Brian from 2011-2014, and it was a very positive experience. Brian is an incredibly engaged HR Leader, he is committed to the business, and he cares deeply for the development and success of his team. We climbed many hills together in a fast-paced and high-growth company. Together we achieved Inc.'s Hire Power Award in 2012, and Brian led and drove improvements in Domestic and International Employee Benefits that resulted in increased Employee Engagement across the Globe.
