“Having worked with Brad over the last 10 years he has demonstrated exceptional strategies fueling extensive business growth. Brad’s ability to see opportunity and then reposition organizations was well demonstrated when securing worldwide strategic partnerships. His abilities were further evident when he prioritized key initiatives during a recent large enterprise turn-around he orchestrated. I highly recommend Brad Myers in any business pursuits.”
