The Lead Today Story

FROM THE DESK OF JIM PIPER, JR.

About Lead Today: I founded Lead Today to serve leaders with clarity and purpose. My leadership journey began in youth athletics, where I learned strategy and dedication, later extending into banking and mentoring business clients. Each role built on the last, shaping my desire to help others grow. In my mid-forties, I embraced a new direction. After years as a banker, coach, and pastor, I launched Lead Today—a leadership development community focused on equipping leaders to grow, lead well, and make a lasting impact. Today, through keynotes, coaching, workshops, and our online community, we help leaders and teams strengthen their vision and achieve real results.

  • Positive examples of moral leadership that elevate people and organizations.

  • Negative examples of poor leadership that damage trust, culture, and outcomes.
