Meet the Team
Ryan C. Bailey, executive coach + Managing Partner
Ryan Bailey is the President & CEO of LIROS Group, an Atlanta-based organizational effectiveness firm. Passionate about developing leaders, Ryan believes that investing in team and leadership development is critical to the overall growth and success of a company. Strong leaders create strong teams, and strong teams execute on the vision of an organization. As a trusted advisor for senior leadership, he challenges and equips leaders of all levels to create and sustain high-performing teams and develop leadership bench strength across the organization.
Working with domestic and international leaders, teams, and organizations that vary in industry, size, and culture, Ryan’s clients have experienced wins such as 27% of Leadership Development Program participants being promoted within a year, increasing voice of teammate (VOT) engagement scores from 35-88% in 18 months, and – with Ryan coaching the leadership team from crisis to unity – selling a company for 10% more than anticipated.
With a degree in Economics from the NYU Stern School of Business as the groundwork, Ryan is able to apply both knowledge and insight to a trifecta of focus areas: leadership development, entrepreneurial management, and international business. His early experience includes eight years of developing strategic business plans for both international and domestic business ventures in both the for-profit and not-for-profit spaces. During this time, he built the foundation from which to coach senior leaders to successfully create, launch, manage, and grow their organizations.
In pursuit of his passion for developing people, Ryan chose to further his education and experience by obtaining a Master’s in Counseling from Gordon-Conwell and completing the Advanced Corporate Coaching Program of Coachinc.com, the oldest and most established coach-training program in the world. Additionally, he is certified to administer a variety of assessments, including the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator, the EQ-i 2.0, and the EQ-i 360.
Raised in a bilingual home, Ryan is fluent in both Spanish and English. He leverages his personal growth and professional experience to help clients embrace the importance and benefits of understanding their core beliefs and leading from a place of authenticity.
Ryan lives in the Atlanta metro area with his wonderful wife Grace and their three beautiful adopted children.
