JBryan Myers, President and CEO of [solidcore], Named Chief Influencer

The Communications Board names Bryan Myers, President and CEO of [solidcore], a Chief Influencer.

What makes people follow a leader? In this episode of Chief Influencer®, Bryan Myers shares why influence is ultimately less about authority or persuasion and more about the way leaders make people feel.

Drawing on his journey from finance executive to President and CEO of [solidcore], Bryan explains how stepping onto the studio floor as a coach transformed his understanding of leadership, credibility, and connection. By experiencing the business from the front lines, he gained the perspective needed to lead employees, inspire members, and strengthen the organization's culture.

Throughout the conversation, Bryan reflects on the power of authenticity, servant leadership, and personal branding in an era when people expect leaders to be visible and accessible. He discusses why adapting your communication style should never come at the expense of your values, how vulnerability creates stronger teams, and why the most successful brands focus on serving the right audience instead of trying to appeal to everyone. Blending practical leadership lessons with personal stories, Bryan offers a compelling blueprint for building trust, empowering others, and creating lasting influence by helping people feel seen, valued, and capable.
