Lead Every Day exists to help you unleash the passion and performance of everyone around you, starting with YOU!

OUR STORY

Lead Every Day is a leadership coaching and training company co-founded by Mark Miller and Randy Gravitt. We work with leaders, teams, and organizations through three integrated practices: becoming a better leader, improving team performance, and strengthening your organization. Our work is grounded in 25+ years of research with more than 250,000 leaders, and our books have sold more than 1.5 million copies in 32 languages.

Every leader deserves the tools to pursue healthy leadership practices for themselves, their teams, and their organizations.

Lead Every Day was founded on a simple belief: effective leadership can be learned and lived in every area of life. Built on decades of research and real-world application, we equip leaders with the tools to grow themselves, their teams, and their organizations.

Our work has inspired more than 250,000 leaders across business, education, nonprofits, sports, healthcare, and beyond, motivating leaders to win championships, build better teams, serve communities, make a great chicken sandwich, and change the world.

Training & Workshops

Lead Every Day is your partner in achieving excellence through strategic, results-oriented training and certification. We understand that the success of your organization hinges on the knowledge, skills, and cohesion of your team.

Coaching

Leadership isn’t a destination, it’s a continuous journey. Lead Every Day Certified Coaches support personal growth, professional excellence, and transformative leadership through a personal, pragmatic, and consistent coaching approach.

Consulting

Lead Every Day partners with organizations to provide strategic guidance and practical solutions that support leadership alignment, organizational clarity, and long-term performance.

What We Do

We provide a concrete, comprehensive framework for improved performance. Our proven system focuses on three essential disciplines:

The three disciplines aren’t separate programs — they’re the same operating system applied at three levels: the individual leader, the team they lead, and the organization they’re part of. Most leadership development teaches one. Our work is to help you build all three together.

      FAQ

      Frequently Asked Questions

      01

      Who founded Lead Every Day?

      Lead Every Day was co-founded by Mark Miller and Randy Gravitt. Mark spent 45 years at Chick-fil-A leading high-performance leadership development. Randy is a longtime executive coach who works with leaders inside the NFL, MLB, and some of the most respected companies in the country. They built Lead Every Day to combine their decades of experience into a single home for leaders who want to grow.

      02

      What does Lead Every Day do?

      We help leaders, teams, and organizations get better. The work happens through coaching (one-on-one with certified coaches), training and workshops (with teams), the Lead Every Day Academy (a self-paced digital program), and speaking engagements. Underneath all of it is the Lead Every Day Operating System — a framework built from 25+ years of research with more than 250,000 leaders.

      03

      Is Lead Every Day the same as Mark Miller’s books or Randy Gravitt’s coaching?

      Lead Every Day is the home for both. Mark’s books, Randy’s coaching, the LED Operating System, the Academy, and the broader coaching team all live under the same roof. Each piece can stand on its own, but they’re designed to fit together — the books introduce the ideas, the coaching applies them, the OS makes them repeatable.

      04

      Who is on the Lead Every Day team?

      Beyond Mark and Randy, Lead Every Day has a team of Certified Executive Coaches who work with leaders one-on-one. They bring decades of experience across industries — sports, restaurant, technology, manufacturing, and nonprofit. Each coach is certified in the Lead Every Day Operating System and trained to walk alongside leaders through their specific challenges.

      05

      What companies has Lead Every Day worked with?

      Lead Every Day partners with leaders and teams inside Chick-fil-A, the Buffalo Bills, the Pittsburgh Pirates, BuildWitt, Hyatt, Kroger, Rinnai, the WinShape Foundation, State Farm, and many others. The work spans professional sports, restaurant, hospitality, retail, manufacturing, technology, and faith-based nonprofits — anywhere leaders want to get better at leading.

      06

      How do I get started with Lead Every Day?

      The simplest first step is the Lead Every Day Assessment — a free self-evaluation that shows you where you stand on the five fundamentals of leadership and where to focus next. From there, the work continues wherever you are: in the books, in coaching, in the Academy, or in a conversation with our team.
