Leadership and teambuilding expert. Success coach and consultant. Startup, small business and Fortune 500 experience. I'm here to help.
I've been a vendor to Pete's company and found him to be honest, straightforward and professional.
Pete is a true visionary and challenges conventional thought in a manner that creates value for a business. He is a catalyst for ideation. While I was consulting for Pete, his team built, tested, and transitioned two ground-breaking businesses to the core Best Buy organization. Superb business development professional. I'd welcome the opportunity to work with him again.
Pete was a great team leader, fun to work for, and really cared for his people. I would work for him again as he helped me grow in my role.
Pete is a great leader, coach and friend. He has tremendous strategic insights and an ability to bring out the best in his team.
Pete was one of the most decent and genuinely enthusiastic people I worked with at Sprint. You could count on Pete to deliver and to exceed expectations. He also brought a fresh perspective to every challenge without internal company bias.
I had the pleasure of working under Pete’s leadership and consistently impressed by his ability to bring individual strengths for the accomplishment of organizational goals. His genuine concern for fellow staff members and communication skills have allowed him to develop strong working relationships with both internal and external staff members. Having worked closely with leaders with tremendous responsibilities, few have his ability to remain calm and focused during stressful and challenging periods. It is with great pleasure that I endorse Pete's experience in leading and developing great teams.
Pete is a talented leader, marketeer and manager. While working with Pete in our new business development role his strengths as a "make business" guy came through as he drove deals representing 20+% of the companies EBIT., all incremental. I truly enjoyed working with Pete and was inspired by his creative approach.
LTC Bosse was my supervisor in Iraq at Camp Anaconda (Balad) from July 2003 until February 2004. He was Director of Logistics and I his assistant. I had the privilege of working for him in a combat environment but it wasn’t really difficult. LTC Bosse is the kind of leader every soldier would love to have. He would challenge me and my team members, but at the same time give us the freedom and flexibility to do our mission. Whatever decisions we made, LTC Bosse would always support us. He instinctively knew when pressure was building and used his humor and out of the box thinking to diffuse situations and relive stress. His military knowledge and civilian background have molded him into an excellent officer and leader. He is a man of his word, always positive and always respectful, of both those above him and those who follow his directions, and at all rank levels. I would gladly work for LTC Bosse in a military or civilian position again.
Colonel Bosse is the best Officer I have served under in my 10+ years of military service. He possesses strong coaching and mentoring skills that compliment his genuine concern for people. His expertise and knowledge in Leadership has significantly impacted my professional development through several Leadership development sessions that he personally led with great enthusiasm and expertise. His ability to coach, mentor, and guide his subordinate Commanders is far more advanced and effective than what I’ve experienced throughout my career. As a Brigade Commander, he built a strong, cohesive team based on trust, candidness, commitment, accountability, and results. He provided a positive environment that made everyone at every level feel like their contributions and opinions mattered. I’ve heard Soldiers at every echelon state that they would not let their mission fail because they wanted to make Colonel Bosse proud and “make him look good”. His team-based Leadership style, positive attitude, enthusiasm, genuine concern, and his “lead by example” standard have proven to be very effective and leave a long-lasting impact.
Pete was always innovative as a start up Telecom company in Canada took on the monopolies. He helped move Sprint Canada to over $1B as a critical driver of marketing and new product strategies.
The energy level was a joy for a Corporate Member.

Pete was a wonderful collaborator and highly energetic person. We partnered on several large projects which made significant contributions to Best Buy's earnings. I always found Pete to be a patient but driven business professional and I highly recommend his work.
