Meet Dr. James Miles
Our founder, Dr. James L. Miles Sr. started out as a US Marine and computer systems engineer. Building on this foundation of military service and systems thinking, Dr. Miles served in church ministry, international exchange programming, and community engagement roles for over a decade, specializing in, community formation, organizational performance, community economic development, cross-functional leadership and multi-stakeholder collaborations.
While working on his second doctorate, Dr. Miles integrated principles of population health, public policy, and short-cycle culture change into his organizational performance and community development work. At this same time it became clear to Dr. Miles that true sustainable and beneficial change is an inside-out job.
Tapping into our better-selves, practicing 'doing good daily' protocols, and daring to embrace opportunities for transformation with courage, is a pathway towards creating the world our hearts often see as possible for us all! This aspirational view led to the creation of the Resilient Village Institute training and collaboration portal and shared community 'experiment'!
