Leadership Greater Topeka: Travis Buchanan

TK: What do you hope your legacy will be? Why? 

I hope my legacy is defined as a servant leader who wanted to make a difference, a life lived with integrity at all times and also a wisdom that allowed me to prioritize time on things that truly mattered in this world.  Everyone will leave a legacy (good or bad), I want mine to be a template for how my kids and the people I interact with want to live themselves. 

TK: What is the best advice you have received? 

I’ll call out two.  The first is simply to know who you are and stay true to yourself.  This applies to everything in life.  The second from a work perspective is it’s okay to say you don’t know or that something cannot be done.  

TK: If you could have one superpower, what would it be and why? 

I would like to have unlimited wisdom as my super power.  Wisdom opens up so many opportunities in life…and it would also help me create a way that I could fly, which would be my second superpower!
