Today, we sit down with the talented Jonathan Baba, who is a Sr. Vice President for
LMI-  A consultancy dedicated to powering a future-ready, high-performing government, drawing from expertise in digital and analytic solutions, logistics, and management advisory services.   Jonathan is a retired Deloitte partner who spent nearly 19 years in their Defense practice.

However, today's conversation is about Jonathan, the dad.  Today's discussion only happens through the kind introduction by Alex Hein, the Co-Founder & CEO of GridIron IT.  This episode has so much wisdom of life experience for us dads to draw and learn from.  Jonathan is a huge Syracuse fan (hear that, Doug Smith?), a father of three, and happily married to his college sweetheart.  Faith and family are the core foundation that built Jonathan's fantastic family.  His parents were very involved and active in his life, which gave him the vision to provide the same experience for his boys.  

Instilling a work ethic was extremely important in his household, making Sunday dinners a must.  One of the coolest parts of our episode was learning about the individual trips he would take each son on when they were 16. During these trips, he found that his boys would grow and their relationships would be strengthened. They would get outdoors and experience what nature has to offer us.    

Some of the core values that he and his wife drove as non-negotiables were:

  • Respect for others
  • Be Kind, always
  • Faith

Jonathan and his wife also did a fantastic job ensuring his boys would always treat women respectfully.  Always.  

You can find him on Linked In or through the show notes linked above to learn more about Jonathan.
