Bio
Mark Morlock
I have had the pleasure of working with and reporting to Brandon at Kuusakoski. During this time I have found him to be driven, results oriented and forward thinking. Together we have faced many difficult and unique challenges in which he has always shown the ability to think outside the box. His leadership style enables an enthusiastic following from his team and challenges personal growth. I believe Brandon to be a invaluable asset to Kuusakoski or any endeavor that he chooses to take on.

Brandon created a work atmosphere that drove the team to results. He provides his team with the objectives, resources, and motivation needed to achieve quality results. His team views him as a source of leadership and motivation. Brandon is willing to pioneer new ideas, take risks, and stand by his decisions. He looks at a situation from all angles, weighs many options, and takes decisive action. He consistently meets his commitments and when he makes a promise he keeps it. Brandon's candid and open style makes it easy for others to trust him. He can be counted upon to support corporate values and do the best thing for the organization. Brandon's enthusiasm has helped the group gel as a unit. He goes out of his way to include others in and get people working together. Brandon is willing to pitch in on any part of a project and expects others to do the same. His unselfish example sets a positive, team-oriented tone and inspires outstanding results. He readily accepts accountability for his own actions and does what is necessary to get his job done. Brandon sets up clear measurements and milestones, which allows him to keep close tabs on progress. When he sees problems or delays he is quick to close in on the issue with the team and keep things moving. He also does an excellent job prioritizing his tasks to ensure key objectives and deadlines are met.
