As a young man in Moppin’ Floors to CEO: From Hopelessness and Failure to Happiness and Success, Dennis C. Miller faces overwhelming obstacles: an emotionally abusive father, physically abusive Catholic school teachers, bottom-of-the-class grades all the way through high school, and mental health issues that land him in Fair Oaks Psychiatric Hospital. Yet through his own perseverance and the help of caring individuals, Dennis begins a slow but sure ascent up the ladder of success. He starts with mopping floors at a Ramada Inn, gains admittance to an Ivy League university, and eventually becomes the CEO of a New Jersey hospital—which he transforms from a failing enterprise to a flourishing institution noted for its exemplary patient care.
Tragedy befalls the hospital, and soon Dennis is being interviewed by Katie Couric, Wolf Blitzer, and Morley Safer. From there, he moves on to a new chapter in life, forming, in 2005, his own leadership consulting firm for nonprofit organizations, which he runs to this day. “My passion had always been to help people,” he writes. “I had an opportunity to help many organizations with developing their strategic plans, board development, fundraising, program development, and marketing strategies. I had a new purpose in life. I was finding my new challenge very fulfilling and deeply rewarding. I had found a new ‘calling in life.
In Moppin’ Floors to CEO: From Hopelessness and Failure to Happiness and Success, Dennis mixes together the right ingredients for an engaging autobiography: a gut-honest recount of his highly eventful life, lots of engaging stories, and some valuable life lessons. We get to know Dennis while he entertains and enlightens us. Through his words and actions, Dennis shows us how anyone, even a troubled kid from New Jersey, can make it to the top and live a fulfilling life.

Autoren-Porträt von Dennis C. Miller
Dennis C. Miller is a nationally recognized strategic leadership coach with over 30 years of experience. The former CEO of Somerset Medical Center and Healthcare Foundation, Dennis now works with leaders of nonprofit organizations who want a more motivated and cohesive board, inspirational leadership, and a more engaged strategic vision with greater levels of achievement and measurable results. Dennis is an expert in board governance, leadership development and succession planning. He works with organizations across the country, small or large, local or global.Dennis has advised hundreds of nonprofit organizations across the country on how to unlock their true potential. He has worked with them to improve the integration of board governance, leadership development, strategic planning, and philanthropy. In addition, he is a sought-after motivational speaker, retreat facilitator, leadership performance coach, and consultant.
What most people don’t know about Dennis is that he came by this ability the hard way. As a child and young man, he encountered emotional and physical abuse, difficulty in school, and mental health issues. Yet he refused to succumb to these challenges. At age 20, he voluntarily admitted himself to a psychiatric hospital to attain the care he needed. After a short stay, he continued to reach out to helping hands and chose to believe in his own potential to do and be something more. He spent decades seeking therapeutic support, which enabled him to find the courage, strength, and determination to overcome his obstacles and achieve a level of success and happiness beyond his wildest dreams.
Although his first “career move” might have been mopping floors at a Ramada Inn, Dennis’ hunger for knowledge eventually led to an Ivy League education and success as a nonprofit organization executive. His career included serving as Executive Vice President/Chief Operating Officer of Holy Name Hospital, and then President& CEO of Somerset Medical Center and
