Meet Ben Lytle
Ben Lytle is a respected entrepreneur, author, and thought leader best known for founding and guiding Anthem, Inc. and Acordia, Inc. into nationally recognized companies. His professional path reflects not just a record of building enduring institutions, but also a lifelong commitment to service. Drawing on his background in psychology and law, he has advised both state and presidential healthcare commissions, always with an eye toward improving systems for the people they serve.
“Earlier in life we expect we can just do it because we want to do it. Find out what lights you up… Take risks. One of the most beautiful things about this stage in life is… I don’t care what anybody thinks.”
Beyond business, Ben is deeply motivated by a desire to uplift others and prepare future generations for success. Through his Potentialist book series, he shares tools for cultivating adaptability and wisdom in an uncertain world, not as a way of elevating himself, but as a means of empowering others. His philanthropic and mentoring work reflects the same spirit—grounded in the belief that leadership is measured not just by financial achievement, but by how much one invests in people and communities.
Community
“I believe that the quality of your healthcare should not be dictated by how much money you make, who you are or where you live. And helping the underserved achieve health equity is what drives me every day.” — Hugh Lytle
