The Mann Group appointed Brett A McCall business development director with responsibility for overseeing specialty retail leadership development at Mann University for the bike, run, and outdoor industry.
Brett comes from Texas, but now calls Black Mountain, NC home. When he is not obsessing over building new relationships that will change the face of retail, he can be found planning new events, playing competitive video games, scaling a mountain, listening to new music, or playing Ultimate Frisbee).
With a bachelor’s degree in community leadership that highlights over 42 hours of self-directed study, Brett is adept at designing game-changing strategies. His roots in leadership development go back to the late 90’s when he served his time as an Outward Bound instructor. He works at the intersection between youth and elders, actors and audience, boards and consumers right in the middle, where he has always been.
“Brett is a great addition to The Mann Group team. His ability to connect with people at the level it takes to break down the walls so that individuals can learn is an incredible talent.” Dan Mann, President.
