Martin Brunke

Martin Brunke

Marty Brunke is the author of The Ready Enterprise and the founder and CEO of VaughnMartin, the company behind Readiness OS.

After spending the first ten years of his career in business, Marty stepped into a very different operating environment: coaching college football at Stanford University. During five years at Stanford, he experienced an organizational model in which preparation was not a philosophy or methodology. It was the operating architecture that allowed people to recognize situations, make decisions, coordinate, and execute under pressure.

When Marty returned to the corporate world, he carried a question that would shape the next twenty years of his career: Why do capable organizations wait until a strategic situation arrives before assembling the ownership, authority, information, funding, and coordinated response needed to address it?

While leading enterprise transformation at Ford, Toyota, Lockheed Martin, Charles Schwab, and Boyd Gaming, he observed the same pattern across industries, challenges, and opportunities. Organizations repeatedly pay the full cost of assembling a response precisely when time matters most.

Marty developed Enterprise Readiness to close that gap and created Readiness OS to make the discipline operational and persistent. His talks show executives, strategy leaders, and PMO professionals how to build the preparation layer between strategy and execution—so their organizations are already moving when the situation arrives.
