“I know Brian for 9 years now and I had the chance to work with him several times in Mattel, the last one being while I was Head of Marketing - Emerging EMEA, dot-reporting to him as VP Marketing - Global Emerging Markets. Brian uniquely combines passion, business acumen and empowering people orientation! • Passion for great results, powering up his inspiring story-telling & impactful communication skills, always positive no matter how stressful the challenge is • Business acumen driven by clarity of vision, strategic approach and creative problem-solving (as well as opportunity-revealing!), always with pragmatic & insights-driven understanding • Empowering, empathetic & appreciative attitude, inspiring you to be the best version of you, always available to support if needed. In a nutshell, Brian is a best-in-class international marketer & inspiring leader, one I wish I had the chance to work even more with!”
