Bret Peters 🌱

Summary

As a seasoned business leader with a growth mindset, I've had the privilege of spearheading diverse teams on both national and international scales. My career highlights include orchestrating a remarkable turnaround, founding a technology joint venture, and helping bring a software company to sale. I take immense pride in steering a company to the esteemed ranks of Inc. 500/5000 "Fastest Growing Companies" for three consecutive years and contributing to growth resulting in a company being named Money Magazine's “Retailer of the Year”. What truly drives me is creating value at every juncture. I specialize in building profitable businesses, cultivating robust teams, and nurturing team members to achieve remarkable feats. The secret to fostering profitable businesses? Collaboration with motivated individuals who share a growth mindset. Throughout my career, I've overseen teams ranging from 30 to 600 members, both domestically and globally. I've crafted successful channel programs and been at the forefront of sales, training, and implementations for industry giants like AWS, Google, Adobe, Acquia, HubSpot, and Salesforce. Whether I'm delivering keynote speeches, hosting podcasts, conducting training sessions, or engaging in one-on-one interactions, my objective extends beyond sharing expertise; I strive to learn and be an active listener. My passion for technology fuels my drive to explore innovative solutions and leverage next-generation technologies to gain competitive advantages in the market. Beyond my professional endeavors, I love a good side hustle. From coaching my kids in sports to teaching as an adjunct professor at Georgetown University, and authoring a children's book titled HUMANiTARIAN, I cherish every opportunity to make a meaningful impact outside the boardroom. My book HUMANiTARIAN is a heartwarming tale of resilience, teamwork, and compassion, where four young protagonists exemplify courage in the face of adversity. More information about the book is available on my website, bretpeters.com, and via Amazon.
