About Bradley Wald

As an accomplished senior leader in finance and business development, I’ve been extremely fortunate to build a 25-year career that includes 20 years in senior executive roles with key contributions to corporate strategy development, sound governance practices, and business plan execution. As a result, I’ve developed teams, built systems and developed policies and procedures, grown brands, consulted and grew start-up\'s, monetized assets, and drove top-line revenue to maximize companies’ value and ROI to shareholders.Over the years I’ve built teams and developed an amazing network of top talent. I’m proud today, that I’ve identified and helped maximize the potential of lots of executives around the world. Also by blending finance and corporate governance expertise with boardroom savvy, I’ve earned a reputation as an effective collaborator, influencer, and consensus builder.A my few career highlights include:== Growing top-line revenue substantially for LAIKA by managing business both fiscally and operationally.== Building a +$10M revenue stream from award-winning licensing/consumer products for NBCUniversal.== Expanding international TV business from $0 to $70M annually for E! Entertainment & Style Networks.== Driving a 655% shift in EBITDA, pivoting $3M in losses to $5M in profits for The Box Holland B.V.== Skyrocketing The Box Worldwide’s value, which ultimately led to its sale for a substantial profit.In summary, I’m a well-rounded executive who’s managed financial and operations aspects of a business, and have driven strategic plan development and execution within large public companies and startups with the highest level of integrity, transparency, and emotional intelligence. Accordingly, I’ve tackled tough challenges by truly understanding all issues that impact overall performance, including critical business considerations, financial factors, and competitive status.
