Monty Moran is the former co-CEO of Chipotle and the best-selling author of Love Is Free. Guac Is Extra.

Monty’s commitment to people led him to personally interview 20,000 employees. This cultivated a corporate culture rooted in curiosity, vulnerability, love, and empowerment.

Today, Monty continues to influence leaders and shares his transformative leadership principles through his books, talks, roles on various corporate boards, and Mindvalley’s The Transformational Leader Quest.

In addition to its Fortune 500 placement, Monty’s leadership saw Chipotle grow from a handful of restaurants to almost 2,500 and from hundreds of employees to nearly 75,000.

Monty is the creator of CONNECTED: A Search for Unity, a critically acclaimed documentary series now in its second season.
