We are looking for Uncommon Leaders

“In any community there are people whose uncommon but successful behaviors or strategies enable them to find better solutions to a problem than their peers, despite facing similar challenges and having no extra resources or knowledge than their peers. These individuals are referred to as positive deviants”

– Rebecca Tuhus-Dubrow

Testimonial

“I consider myself extremely fortunate to have had the opportunity to work closely with Mike Miller, the co-founder of Regenerative Capital Group, for over 20 years, as his first ‘CEO-in-Residence’. Mike has been much more than just a mentor and business partner to me; he has been the driving force behind our shared success and inspiration in both business and in making a positive impact on society.

Two decades ago, Mike and I embarked on a journey together, acquiring small companies and nurturing them to reach their full potential. In my role as COO and CEO of the companies we acquired, I had the privilege of witnessing exceptional leadership firsthand. Throughout these years, Mike's unwavering commitment to excellence, coupled with his exceptional leadership skills, has consistently pushed us to new heights. His strategic vision and deep understanding of business dynamics have been instrumental in our achievements.

Mike consistently fostered a culture of collaboration, innovation, and empowerment, encouraging us to think beyond traditional boundaries and find creative solutions to challenges. Mike's mentorship and guidance have been instrumental in shaping my own professional growth and success.
