Brian Brueggemann, former director of landscape operations at Focal Pointe Outdoor Solutions in Caseyville, Illinois, has joined the Bruce Wilson & Co. team as a productivity improvement consultant and trainer.

“In today’s competitive environment, improving workflow is key,” said Brian. “By looking at the activities landscape teams repeat all the time, we can eliminate bottlenecks and distractions, and improve factors that increase capacity and ensure consistent performance.”

“Brian is a great asset to our team,” says Robert Clinkenbeard, BW&Co managing partner, “and his work optimizing process-level improvements is a powerful tool for CEOs looking to manage profitability and speed up delivery.”

Brian says that increasing productivity and reducing costs improves the overall quality of landscape services and can help everyone from the front lines to the C-suite solve problems together. Brian is a trained horticulturist with a career that grew from the field to the corner office, so his deep understanding of how high performing businesses work, and his ability to come up with a better and more streamlined way of doing things is a plus.

Born and raised in Southern Illinois, Brian holds a Bachelor of Science degree in Landscape Horticulture from Southern Illinois University-Carbondale. His career includes core competencies across industry segments and operations, including wholesale nursery and botanical garden management, design-build, residential and commercial landscape services, and senior management.

In his new role, Brian will support Wilson clients as a productivity advisor and training consultant, specializing in performance improvements, and workflow and value stream mapping.
