EVP, Human Resources & Administration, Viacom
Mills ascended to Viacom’s senior management team last September after a 15-year run at BET, most recently as president/COO. A well-rounded executive with expertise in areas ranging from operations management to ad sales to digital deployment, he is making his mark at Viacom—and its properties including BET, MTV, VH1, Nickelodeon and Paramount—at a time the company is on the road back to financial growth. A steadfast proponent of inclusion and ensuring the peaceful coexistence of personal and professional values, Mills said he is excited to build on Viacom’s legacy “in this time of unprecedented change in our industry.”
