Chris Duncan

CEO of Accelerate Well

Chris knew at a young age the entrepreneurial life was for him – he started his first business at 16, and later graduated from USC with an emphasis in Entrepreneurship. He then founded a technology business that grew into being the market leader. From there, he started and built four more companies, three of which became market leaders and were sold.

During those years, Chris joined a business owners peer group and discovered he loved helping his peers and had a real knack for it. That passion led him to become the leader of the organization, growing it from helping 20 business owners in California to over 400 around the country to build better companies, become better leaders, and live more fulfilling lives.

From there, he went looking for other ways to help leadership teams run better companies and live their best lives. That led him to EOS as the perfect fit. Chris’ unique experience base of helping hundreds of companies turn their vision into reality, 35+ years as an entrepreneur, and 15+ years of emphasis on creating healthy and high performing teams is ideal for helping growth-minded leadership teams implement EOS/Traction and get what they want from their businesses.

Chris and his wife enjoy traveling, hiking, biking, and spending time with their two sons and daughter-in-law. They’re also passionate about leader development, helping exploited children, and supporting micro-entrepreneurs in the developing world.
