Not all CEOs lead. Some just manage. But Gregg Stein, Founder of Triple G Ventures and CEO of Skoog, isn’t just running businesses—he’s transforming them. And now, for the second year in a row, he’s been recognized for his impact, this time as “Most Influential CEO of 2022” by CEO Monthly.

This award isn’t about buzzwords or hype. It’s about measurable results, transformational leadership, and the ability to set the standard for the future. That’s exactly what Gregg Stein brings to the table.

Why This Recognition Matters

CEO Monthly’s “CEO of the Year” award is no participation trophy. It’s reserved for leaders who are reshaping industries, driving innovation, and delivering real impact. With an audience of 60,000 C-suite executives, directors, and decision-makers worldwide, this honor highlights the elite few who don’t just adapt—they set the pace.

So, what makes Gregg Stein stand out?

Here’s what he had to say about his leadership approach:

“I work directly with the teams that execute growth plans. Time management, clear communication, and accountability are non-negotiables. Anyone can execute the basics, but excelling requires discipline and clarity.”

This hands-on style has helped him scale startups and established brands alike, from back-of-the-napkin ideas to $500M+ businesses.
