Chris Casillas is founder of Regenerating Sonora, a Superior based nonprofit that’s nurturing local potential for a resilient and regenerative future. He also helps build leaderful organizations as co-founder of The Development Dojo, and is a board member at the Center for Shamanic Education and Exchange. Chris has a background in tech where he played a key role in helping scale a business from startup to becoming a multibillion dollar publicly traded company. We met Chris through the Design School for Regenerating the Earth and really enjoy collaborating and talking with him. He’s a pretty cool guy so we are very excited to have him as our first interview. Support Chris' work by visiting and donating to Regenerating Sonora at regeneratingsonora.org. Regenerating Sonora shares a lot of their events on social media: Youtube, Facebook, TikTok. Folks can also have a look at www.thedevelopmentdojo.com if they're interested in leadership development offerings.
