Mike Joseph

2027 Conference Chair

Mike is a big picture individual who loves connecting with people. Working with CEO’s and executive teams to develop short and long-term strategy, he has a broad network of contacts in and out of multiple industries- both local and international.

Over the past 20 years, Mike has built, owned and operated over 25 hospitality related businesses. His expertise lies in mid-size entrepreneurial firms with a focus on growth, leadership and building world class cultures.

Authentic, dynamic, comedic, and intuitive-also impatient, impulsive and selfdeprecating.

Self-awareness is front and center. Accountable and organized. Public speaker, avid student, and always looking to find a better way.

In his free time, Mike enjoys travelling to interesting new places, cooking for friends and family, drinking red wine and smoking the occasional Cuban cigar.
