About Douglas Dye

From Wall Street to Tierra del Fuego, the Levant to the Cape of Good Hope, and Dar es Salaam to the City of Angels, Douglas has been a servant-leader on behalf of Fortune 100 companies (3M, AIG, American Express), leading government agencies, and international non-profit organizations. As an explorer, entrepreneur, and now co-founder and chief executive officer of Manalive Media Group, Douglas has built and led cross-functional teams worldwide with competence, common sense, and courage — and by developing others to top performance through commitment to excellence, integrity, creativity, and good humor.Beginning his career in post-civil war Nicaragua as a Small Business Development volunteer in the U.S. Peace Corps, Douglas has lived throughout the United States and in six countries across Latin America, Africa, and the Middle East, and has conducted business in more than 20. Highly curious and collaborative by nature, he earned his M.B.A. from the Thunderbird School of Global Management, and a Bachelor of Science in Business Administration from the University of California, Riverside. A hopeless bibliophile and fallible knight-errant, Douglas was born and raised in the mountains of Montana, to where he has recently returned, now hanging his hat in Big Sky Country. He begins each day with an early-morning workout along the Yellowstone River and ends it by meditating on the Mysteries of the Rosary, a spiritual sword made by the Divine Craftsman. Various achievements: — Co-founded and leads Manalive Media Group to bring to life classic masterpieces, as well as original creations of uncommon worth.— While in the Foreign Service, earned the honor of pinning (for promotion) a U.S. Marine. — Launched a digitally enabled, client facing sales channel as part of $50MM investment P&L for a leading U.S. bank.— Improved ARR by 500% of an $8MM Foreign Service National Fund at the USG's second largest mission in the Middle East.— Spearheaded a team-building and change management initiative at the USG's fastest growing overseas mission. — Negotiated deals with Latin American partners valued at $1.2 billion in PV for a leading global financial services company.
