Brian Calley is a collaborative leader who combines the skills from an accomplished private sector career with a heart for public service and a record of getting things done. He is

passionate about making the world work better for all people and uses an inclusive problem-
solving approach to make a difference.
As President of the Small Business Association of Michigan, Brian is able to put his passion for
Michigan's small businesses to work. He also serves as a Director of a publicly traded
community bank and sits on the Board of Directors of Special Olympics Michigan, Disability
Rights Michigan and the Autism Alliance of Michigan and as a Trustee of Oakland University.
Calley had the honor of serving as Michigan?s 63rd Lieutenant Governor from 2011-2018.
During that time, he played an integral role in Michigan?s comeback in partnership with
Governor Rick Snyder. He is often referenced as redefining the role of Lt. Governor, taking on
issues that were critical and important to the success of our state. Calley was the driving force
behind two historic tax reforms that were the catalyst for significant private-sector job growth
in Michigan. During his tenure, more than 555,000 jobs were created and Michigan saw the
lowest unemployment rate in nearly two decades. As Michigan's lieutenant governor, he also
spearheaded regulatory reform, infrastructure improvement and employee engagement
efforts.
