For New United Way CEO Blair Taylor, Leadership Is About Creating Opportunity

Blair Hamilton Taylor, who has experience in the nonprofit, corporate, and public sectors, is the incoming CEO of United Way of King County.
Taylor’s main goal is to see the world improve through the use of his God-given skill and talent.
Taylor believes that current challenges such as economic uncertainty, workforce disruption, housing instability, and social divides could be solved collectively through collaboration.
He sees his role as an opportunity to connect people to find solutions to these problems in a time of vulnerability.
As a father of four and with a long tie to Seattle, Taylor’s primary concern is the opportunity and education of future generations.
He emphasizes the importance of leadership training, particularly for young people who lack access to it.
To Taylor, the key to solving today’s pressing challenges is collaboration among different institutions and sectors.
Taylor, driven by a philosophy of servant leadership, aims to lead United Way of King County not just to manage the institution, but to build collaborations, leadership pipelines, and organizational capacity for long-term impact.
