Brady M. Pittz is a growth-oriented executive, entrepreneur, and board candidate whose career has been defined by helping organizations scale with purpose, discipline, and operational excellence. As President and Co-Owner of Leapros, Inc., Brady has transformed a specialized staffing business into a diversified national organization serving some of the fastest-growing companies in the United States. His leadership philosophy centers on creating high-performing organizations by combining strategic vision with financial discipline, operational rigor, and a genuine commitment to people. Throughout more than two decades of professional experience, he has consistently demonstrated that sustainable growth is achieved by building strong teams, fostering trust, and creating systems that allow businesses to perform at their highest potential.
Brady currently leads every major function of Leapros, including operations, finance, sales, human resources, technology, risk management, and long-term strategic planning. Since assuming operational leadership in 2020, he has guided the organization through an extraordinary period of expansion, growing annual revenue from approximately $11 million to more than $45 million while positioning the business to surpass $65 million. Under his leadership, the company has earned multiple appearances on the Inc. 5000 list of America’s Fastest-Growing Private Companies while simultaneously strengthening profitability, expanding gross margins, and developing the infrastructure necessary for long-term success. His ability to balance aggressive growth with disciplined execution has made him a respected leader among founder-led and mid-market organizations seeking scalable business models.
One of Brady’s greatest strengths lies in his ability to see opportunities beyond traditional organizational boundaries. Rather than viewing staffing simply as talent acquisition, he approaches every engagement through the broader lens of business strategy, workforce optimization, and organizational performance. His leadership has included sourcing and integrating multiple acquisitions that transformed Leapros from a single-market staffing company into a diversified enterprise supporting professional services, construction management, skilled trades, and hyperscale data center markets across the country. His experience with mergers and acquisitions has provided him with valuable expertise in integration planning, operational alignment, cultural development, and strategic positioning for future enterprise value.
Financial stewardship has become another defining characteristic of Brady’s executive career. As the executive responsible for full profit-and-loss accountability, he oversees annual budgeting, lender relationships, capital planning, working capital optimization, and financial forecasting. He has successfully evaluated and negotiated multiple credit facility structures while leading quality-of-earnings normalization efforts and preparing the organization for future recapitalization opportunities. His practical understanding of EBITDA optimization, valuation readiness, cash flow management, and disciplined financial governance enables him to help organizations make informed decisions that strengthen both short-term performance and long-term enterprise value. His board-level perspective allows him to ask thoughtful financial questions that move beyond reporting metrics and focus instead on understanding what the numbers reveal about the health and direction of a business.
Prior to his leadership at Leapros, Brady spent more than seven years with Polaris Industries, where he advanced rapidly through multiple sales and marketing leadership positions. During his tenure, he managed dealer relationships across multiple states, led regional sales organizations, implemented customer relationship management initiatives, and ultimately served as Senior Channel Marketing Manager overseeing a nationwide network of approximately 1,400 independent dealers. Managing a marketing budget of roughly $30 million, Brady successfully expanded dealer participation, significantly increased digital engagement, and strengthened relationships throughout Polaris’ national dealer network. These experiences provided him with invaluable insight into large-scale distribution, customer engagement, sales strategy, and channel management while reinforcing the importance of operational consistency across geographically diverse organizations.
Brady’s leadership extends well beyond executive management into governance and enterprise risk oversight. He currently serves on the Executive Committee and chairs the Underwriting Committee for Industrial Staffing Ltd., a Cayman Islands-regulated group captive insurance company representing more than one hundred staffing organizations and approximately $52 million in workers’ compensation premium. In this governance capacity, he helps oversee underwriting standards, member admission criteria, capital protection, renewal strategies, and long-term risk management decisions. His work requires balancing growth objectives with prudent governance practices while maintaining the financial integrity of the organization. This experience has strengthened his understanding of fiduciary responsibility, board governance, insurance strategy, and enterprise risk management, making him particularly well suited to serve organizations seeking experienced board leadership.
Recognizing that technology is rapidly reshaping every industry, Brady has become a passionate advocate for practical and measurable artificial intelligence adoption. Rather than pursuing technology for its own sake, he focuses on implementing AI solutions that improve operational efficiency, financial analysis, contract review, and organizational decision-making. He personally led the development of a proprietary AI-supported operating system within Leapros, helping position the company at the forefront of operational innovation in the staffing industry. His approach emphasizes return on investment, process improvement, and responsible implementation, allowing organizations to embrace emerging technologies without losing focus on business fundamentals. His perspective on AI combines strategic vision with practical execution, making him a valuable advisor to organizations navigating digital transformation.
Throughout his career, Brady has earned a reputation as a transparent, collaborative, and accountable leader who believes that exceptional organizations are built on trust and shared ownership. He empowers talented individuals by establishing clear objectives while giving teams the autonomy to determine the best path toward success. His leadership style encourages direct communication, mutual accountability, and thoughtful decision-making, creating environments where innovation and high performance naturally emerge. Whether working alongside executive teams, board members, investors, or employees, Brady consistently emphasizes integrity, transparency, and long-term partnership over short-term results.
Brady’s academic foundation reflects his lifelong commitment to leadership and continuous learning. He earned both his Bachelor of Business Administration in General Management and his Master of Business Administration from the University of Wisconsin–Whitewater, where he also distinguished himself as a football team captain and member of a national championship program. The discipline, resilience, and teamwork developed through athletics continue to shape his leadership philosophy today. Outside of his professional responsibilities, Brady enjoys spending time with his family, exercising, golfing, following football, and proudly serving as a shareholder of the Green Bay Packers. He believes that maintaining strong personal relationships and a healthy competitive spirit are essential components of effective leadership.
As a board candidate, Brady is motivated by the opportunity to help organizations solve complex challenges while continuing to broaden his own perspective as a business leader. He is particularly drawn to founder-led, privately held, and growth-oriented middle-market companies seeking guidance through periods of expansion, acquisition, operational transformation, or strategic change. His broad executive experience spanning growth strategy, finance, mergers and acquisitions, governance, workforce planning, risk management, and artificial intelligence allows him to contribute meaningful insight across multiple dimensions of organizational leadership. Brady brings not only executive experience but also the practical mindset of an operator who has successfully built businesses from the inside, creating value through disciplined execution, thoughtful leadership, and an unwavering commitment to helping organizations grow the right way.
