In this episode, Michele Kawamoto Perry is joined by John Elliott, CEO of the Santa Ynez Band of Chumash Indians, for a compelling conversation about leadership rooted in purpose, growth, and legacy.
John shares how he's helped shape a resilient and values-driven culture across Chumash Enterprises — from navigating the pandemic to launching innovative sustainability efforts like a zero-waste-certified resort.
He also reflects on his leadership philosophy, the unique lessons he’s learned from working with tribal nations, and how he and his team are charting a course to serve both the tribe and the broader community for generations to come.
