Lessons from the Driver’s Seat (of a Buick): Babbie Jaco’s Leadership Story

This Women's History Month, we celebrate the legacy of Babbie Jaco, a powerhouse in affordable housing whose journey from secretary to CEO is nothing short of inspiring. In this special WAHNcast episode, Babbie shares her incredible career story—growing a company from three employees to over 550, navigating the industry’s evolution, and leading with both heart and grit. Now in retirement (but busier than ever!), she reflects on the importance of ethics, mentorship, and building a workplace where people want to stay. She also shares wisdom from the books that shaped her leadership, the power of heart work, and her unforgettable philosophy of flying by Buick to get the job done. From making multimillion-dollar decisions to making her mom’s coffee just right, Babbie reminds us that every season of life has its own leadership lessons. Tune in for a conversation filled with wisdom, humor, and the kind of real talk that makes Babbie an industry icon.
