I had the opportunity to work with Brett while at Mann+Hummel. During this time, Brett and I had partnered in paving the way forward for the IT Organization in North and South America as the Company transitioned with a recent acquisition. In working with Brett, I have found him to have a solid command of technology and a collaborative leadership style. Brett can see the big picture and bring a team together to implement technologies that can effectively improve the vision and direction of the Organization. I would welcome the opportunity to work with Brett in the future and believe he would be a great asset to any Organization.

I have had the privilege of working with Brett in a variety of different scenarios as a customer, team-mate, and colleague. I am consistently reminded of Brett's skill across areas that typically find themselves either at odds or found across multiple people. Brett demonstrates a unique balance of technical expertise, big-picture view and an ability to rally a team together for a common goal. Brett and I have worked together as he was the CEO of a prominent customer and a lead member of our advisory board. In both cases, Brett demonstrated excellent leadership and consultation to ensure that services and products being delivered were best suited for other customers. I worked with teams that Brett rallied and led, giving each clear goals and defined scope so that projects moved forward efficiently and measured the results effectively. Brett blended an ability to mentor the team, as well as hold members accountable for the final results. Brett is a calculated risk-taker. Hehas an uncanny way of determining what the target market needs and has the capability of tweaking his approach accordingly. As a pragmatic leader and a realist, he can grasp ideas in a holistic manner and still pay attention to minor details. Brett has a well-deserved reputation as someone who is diligent and intellectual – two qualities that define him completely. As someone who is an innovative problem-solver and a talented leader, Brett is a pleasure to work with. I recommend him highly for any organization that chooses to take benefit from his diverse skills.
