From Founding Visionary to Strategic Architect

After 12 years as CEO, co-founder and founding leader Brandon Miller is stepping into a new role as Chairman of the Board.

Brandon’s leadership has shaped the heart and trajectory of 34 Strong. What began as a bold vision to help organizations build strengths-based cultures has grown into a nationally recognized consulting firm serving partners across industries and sectors. Under his guidance, 34 Strong expanded its reach, offerings, and impact. We acquired Churchill Leadership Group and are integrating into a broader family of companies committed to building exceptional leaders and workplaces.

In his new role, Brandon will continue guiding the strategic direction of 34 Strong at the board level, while supporting leadership teams across the portfolio. He will remain actively engaged in partnerships, global relationships, speaking, and thought leadership as the companies continue to grow.

Brandon is also focusing energy on a new frontier rooted in strengths, listening, and leadership development. While details will be shared soon, this next chapter aims to expand how organizations grow leaders, how teams develop, and how coaches scale their impact. Something exciting is on the horizon!
