MichaelBrennan

Michael Brennan has spent 25 years in enterprise IT leading sales, strategy, and large-scale customer environments.

He has held SVP and VP roles at QOS Networks, Windstream, and EarthLink, leading global sales, channel strategy, and account management. He has built and led teams, owned revenue, and managed environments spanning thousands of customers and tens of millions in recurring revenue.

His background spans engineering, sales, and strategy. He improves how organizations make and manage technology decisions, with an emphasis on cost optimization, scalability, and measurable business impact.

Michael co-founded FORGE Technology Advisors with his partners to redefine how organizations approach technology decisions. FORGE operates as a provider-agnostic, data-driven advisor, aligning technology investments to business objectives and maintaining accountability through execution and lifecycle oversight.

He ensures technology decisions are grounded in data, aligned to the business, and actually get executed.

Outside of work, he is a husband, father, friend, and veteran, and by his own admission, a closet luddite. That perspective keeps him grounded. Be direct. Skip the ego. Leave things better than you found them.
