Hi. I’m Seth Waite. CEO, strategist, data-nerd, wood worker, and community volunteer. I love working with smart, value-based people who aren’t afraid of #growth and are driven to #workbetter.

Here’s what I know for sure. People matter, each and every single one. No person born on this earth is insignificant. No human experience is without effect.

I believe there’s never been a more challenging—or rewarding—time to be working towards making the way we live and work better.

My Mission

Humans are amazingly complex and beautiful. I want to help people. I want to work with people who want to help people too. It means living in a world capable of understanding and explaining the worth of a soul. The value of human life. We aren’t there yet, but I believe we will get there.

I want to work with companies and clients who build things they love. Things people need. Not because of the flashiness of their messaging, but because of the substance and value of their product. I want to do good in the words I say and the actions I take. Making life better at work and at play. More >>

Work Life

I’ve had the pleasure of working with some of the best brands in the world. They are striving to do good. They all have room for #growth and opportunities to #workbetter, but they are trying. I love that kind of work.

My work has always revolved around gaining skills and experience. I received a degree in Political Science from Brigham Young University so that I could stretch my skills in written communication, persuasion, philosophy, strategy, and reading comprehension. Later I went to Law school and subsequently left after realizing my passion is growth. I then pursued a rigorous education in hard knocks and self-teaching. I also pursued mentorships with some of the brightest people I could find.

I continued my education by attending Gonzaga’s Organizational Leadership and Communication graduate school. Combining theory with the years of hands on experience I was accruing. I made a commitment leaving law school that I would work 1.5-2x more than anyone else to grow faster. I’ve kept that promise and found what I love.

Ultimately, I love to explore, diagnose, and ideate solutions. Then go put everything to the test. I served as CMO, then Chief Growth Officer, before focusing on the role of Chief Strategy Officer at RevUnit (an amazing company I love). I still live into RevUnit’s mantra to Build Small. Learn Fast. Iterate Often to help companies #WorkBetter by building strategies, platforms, and digital products.

Community Life

Helping people is part of my DNA. My family has always believed in making the world better through personal care and individual ministry. I live into this belief with my family, faith, and the communities I’ve lived in.

I believe in lifting people through micro-loans, community service, and self-reliance programs which provide people with the tools to better themselves holistically. I participate in higher education advisory boards, economic development committees, and Meals on Wheels. I believe our future is as bright as our faith in it.
