Brian Wall
General Manager of Anodyne Electronics Manufacturing

Ultimately accountable for the successful and profitable growth of the organization and its people, Brian challenges his team to do good and be meaningful in everything they do. Brian describes himself as determined (and a wee bit stubborn), going after what he wants with decision and vigour. His career began as a commercial pilot — a dream since a young boy —, but he returned to school wanting to be successful in business. Brian has since served thirty years in senior leadership roles for a variety of organizations, most recently as AEM’s VP of Operations. As a past auxiliary member of the RCMP, he volunteered 400-600 hours a year.
