Description

The cliché of a man needing no introduction is rife, yet it’s apropos to Greg Brenneman. In business circles, his status is practically mythical and his list of accomplishments is vast. Brenneman has served as the President, CEO, COO, or a combination of the three at companies as diverse as Burger King, Home Depot, and Continental Airlines, and from each he has learned lessons he’s taken into his current role as a mentor and business acquisition expert working with Fortune 500 companies.


Lessons he’s ready to divulge to you.


I had the privilege of sitting down with Brenneman for almost two hours, with the following being some of the lessons extracted from our conversation.
