How to Chart a New Course Within a Familiar Vertical With Steve Bailey of Bailey Safety

Jan 22, 2025

Career pivots don't always happen on impulse or as the result of a 180º turn. More often than not, change occurs slowly until the protagonist finds themself in different but not unfamiliar territory. 

That's the story with Steve Bailey, president of Bailey Safety. He parlayed a successful career in his family's distribution business into a lucrative safety consulting and training venture. Jason caught up with Steve to discover what it's like to transition from a traditional distributorship to a safety specialist focused on the construction industry and how he plans to innovate in that space.
