About Deborah Bayle

As a community leader and business influencer for nearly four decades, Deborah made a significant impact in her 16 years as President and CEO of United Way of Salt Lake. During her tenure, Deborah courageously led the transformation of the organization to focus on changing the odds for kids and families in our communities.
