Ricky Cheath
Banking Executive | Entrepreneur | Servant Leader | Leadership & Performance Coach | Motivational Speaker
Ricky Cheath is a banking executive, entrepreneur, and leadership mentor who believes that true success isn’t measured by what we accomplish alone, but by the opportunities we create and the people we help elevate. As Senior Vice President of Regional Development and Diversity Lending at Granite Bank, Ricky brings more than 20 years of experience in mortgage lending, business development, and sales leadership. An award-winning industry professional, he is recognized for his contributions to affordable housing, community development, and expanding homeownership opportunities throughout Minnesota. But Ricky’s perspective on leadership was shaped long before he entered the business world. Born in Cambodia during the Khmer Rouge era, Ricky’s journey from refugee to banking executive taught him that adversity doesn’t have to define your future. It can become the foundation upon which you build it. That belief continues to drive his commitment to serving others. A two-term past President of the Asian Real Estate Association of America (AREAA) Twin Cities Chapter, Ricky continues to serve on its Advisory Board. He also serves on the Executive Board of the Housing First Minnesota Foundation and the Leadership Committee of the Homeownership Opportunity Alliance, advocating for stronger communities and greater access to housing. Beyond banking, Ricky is a co-founder of Be The Club, a golf-inspired lifestyle and performance apparel brand, and the creator of NEXT Level Leadership & Development Coaching, where he mentors business professionals, entrepreneurs, and emerging leaders. His coaching philosophy challenges individuals to confront limiting beliefs, embrace discomfort, strengthen their leadership capabilities, and recognize that what brought them success today may be the very thing preventing them from reaching their next level. As a motivational speaker, Ricky draws from his personal journey and professional experiences to inspire resilience, reinvention, and intentional growth. At the heart of everything he does is one guiding belief: Leadership isn’t about how high you climb. It’s about how many people you help rise along the way. His mission: Develop people. Elevate leaders. Create opportunities. Leave a lasting impact.
