🎧 New Episode Alert: Lead for Good with Baron King, CEO of The CHATT Foundation

This week on Lead for Good, we explore what it truly means to lead with psychological awareness and empathy. My guest, Baron King, brings a rare combination of business acumen, clinical insight, and heart.

As CEO of The CHATT Foundation, Baron leads an organization dedicated to meeting the most basic needs of hungry, homeless, and vulnerable people—while helping them build a clear path toward self-sufficiency. His leadership reflects a belief that understanding human behavior is not just helpful in leadership—it’s essential.

In this conversation, Baron shares how his journey from retail management to psychology to nonprofit leadership has shaped his conviction that every great leader needs a psychological framework. We discuss:

  • How to read the emotional pulse of an organization

  • Ways to build resilience and safety through change

  • Balancing empathy with accountability

  • What it means to “walk with” people on the journey to independence

    Baron’s perspective is both deeply human and powerfully practical—a reminder that leadership begins with understanding people.

    Thank you, Baron, for an inspiring and insightful discussion.
