Hi, I’m Brian Gottlieb, the Founder and CEO behind a home improvement venture that started on a simple plastic folding table in 2009 with just $3,000. What began as a small startup grew into a thriving multi-state group of companies with 600 talented employees and a value of just under $200 million. I've had the privilege of leading these companies to success, eventually selling two of them to private equity and one to my leadership team.
My business philosophy is straightforward: Have a clear strategy, inspire your team to believe in themselves, provide best-in-class training, use metrics as a form of empowerment, and execute with consistency. Clarity creates alignment, and alignment wins. This approach put us on the INC 5000 list of fastest growing companies, four years in a row and as a reflection of employee satisfaction and commitment, the business was named the best place in Wisconsin to work.
Outside of running companies, I'm passionate about helping early-stage businesses get off the ground as an angel investor and adding value to seasoned businesses by participating on their board. I also travel the country sharing my experiences and insights through keynote speeches, aiming to inspire other businesses to realize their potential.
Significantly influencing my own leadership journey was Harvard Business School, where I attained alumni status through their executive education program.
I'm also excited to share that in the summer of 2024, Forbes will be publishing my book on culture and leadership, a topic that's very close to my heart.
Thanks for stopping by and I look forward to connecting with you!
