Ryan Baty, Entrepreneur, Leader, County Commissioner elect
Episode description
"We are going to set a GOLD Standard for how we deal with Mental Health, nationally." --Ryan Baty
You can study leadership, view it as transactional, follow blindly or ignore it altogether for hopes that people will just leave you alone. There are significant consequences to all of those.
How does a leader become Transformational?
Transformational leaders gain buy-in and commitment by encouraging, inspiring, and caring for their followers towards a vision. Leaders get results by transforming the environment and relationships. And this leadership style requires empathy, courage, experience and taking action. Its hard. Its rare. There are few examples of this in the environment we live in today.
Not to put further pressure on Mr. Ryan Baty, recently elected County Commissioner, but (yes the dreaded conjunction) I believe he is a Transformational Leader. My evidence is all in the actions he takes, his perseverance and the life he leads as a Father, a Pastor, a Coach, an Entrepreneur, a Leader, a Listener and a man of Action.
