“While Branden is probably always the smartest person in the room, he treats others as equals with respect, kindness, appreciation, and a genuine smile (even though his LinkedIn profile photo might not reflect that smile...ha!). I thoroughly enjoyed all aspects of working with him; he was endlessly engaging, hilarious, exhilarating, and inspiring -- even in stressful conditions. He thinks BIG, questions the status quo, welcomes everyone's opinion in a way that elicits their best thinking, pushes limits through innovation, and humbly checks ego at the door without caring whether he gets any of the credit for his genius or the high level of performance of the group. Branden faces and embraces even the most daunting of life's challenges with grace, gratitude, grit, faith, and optimism.”
