Ep 2073: The CEO and the CSO

Join us on iWork4Him as we dive into an inspiring conversation with Doug Dwyer, Chief Stewarding Officer (CSO) of DreamMaker Bath & Kitchen. What’s a CSO? Doug explains how his faith led him to name God as the CEO of his company, committing to steward the business with humility, love, and excellence. From tub refinishing to full-scale kitchen and bath remodeling, DreamMaker’s mission is rooted in Proverbs and dedicated to glorifying God while delivering outstanding service.

Doug shares how his faith journey took him from merely knowing about Jesus to making Him the Lord of his life. Through challenges like the Great Recession of 2008, downsizing, and personal struggles, Doug leaned on God’s truths, discovering that pain often paves the way for growth and innovation. He also highlights practical steps for building a Christ-centered business, including creating a values-based culture.

With a vision to expand DreamMaker to 200 franchise locations by 2030, Doug offers advice for Christian business owners: make God the CEO of your business—in your heart and your operations. Tune in for insights on integrating faith and work, and maybe even find your calling in the DreamMaker family!
