About Ron Hill: 

Ron Hill is a disruptive entrepreneur, conscious leadership guide, facilitator, and keynote speaker who transforms organizations and unlocks the full potential of leaders. As founder of Redemption Plus, he built and scaled a company that disrupted its industry over 25 years — then successfully navigated its sale during a global pandemic. Ron creates psychologically safe environments where innovation thrives, and breakthrough thinking flourishes.  

Ron transformed Redemption Plus from a traditional business into a purpose-driven powerhouse by first transforming himself. His personal growth journey revealed a powerful truth: when leaders do their inner work, teams flourish, and businesses thrive. This parallel transformation — personal and organizational — gives Ron rare, battle-tested insights that now fuel his approach to conscious leadership.  

Rather than presuming to have all the answers, Ron helps leaders uncover what already exists within their own DNA — or their organization's foundation. He catalyzes leaders to unlock peace and love within themselves, creating conditions for those around them to thrive. In a world where no individual can keep pace with the current rate of change, collective wisdom is the ultimate competitive advantage.  

As Co-Founder, Guide, and Managing Partner of Conscious Leaders Quest, Ron facilitates transformative experiences rooted in a simple but powerful belief: only at the intersection of mind, body, and business can you unlock your full potential as a leader.  

When leaders awaken to this truth, they stop operating in fight-or-flight mode, harness the intelligence already within their teams, and build the businesses the world needs now. When leaders live congruent lives, cultures transform — and that transformation ripples far beyond the walls of any organization. Many leaders today are under-resourced and contagiously stressed; true transformation elevates not just the leader, but everyone around them.  

Based in Leawood, KS and Bozeman, MT, Ron walks his own growth path alongside the leaders he guides — embodying the belief that "when we strive to become better than we are, everything around us becomes better too."  

A Certified XCHANGE Guide, HeartMath Certified Mentor, and Nordic Wellness Coach, Ron brings a multi-disciplinary toolkit to every leader and organization he serves.
