“Brian has an uncanny ability to see through complexity and noise to get at the essence of an issue and then make a clear, wise, and impactful decision about it. He's a great communicator and an authentic leader who listens and considers but also acts, confidently expressing his point of view and then leading teams to deliver on it. It's no easy task to effectively manage teams for business impact while also genuinely caring about people and culture, and positively influencing both, but Brian does this naturally and effortlessly. In short, he's a great business thinker and people leader and I can't recommend him highly enough.”

Not the typical college reunion when your friend, classmate and newest Supreme Court Justice shows up with federal marshals flanking her.
