Bruce understands business. As a long-time entrepreneur, he grasps the challenge of getting things done, acquiring new customers, and staying ahead of the competition. Both a thinker and a doer, he knows how effective marketing communications can make it all happen.
Bruce encourages this entrepreneurial thinking within the entire Impact team – both strategically and creatively – so that everything we do is imbued with energy, and focused on results. Bruce's supportive and motivating leadership style was honored when he was named one of Canada's top bosses, and number 1 in Nova Scotia, in Monster.ca's 2005 Best Bosses Competition.
