As one of Brett's multinational clients put it "He just knows his stuff so well and his ability to read people and situations and take the room to where they need to go is just awesome!"
Brett also possesses an impressive business pedigree. As an academic he has degrees and awards in marketing, commercial law, management and labour relations.
