Meet JeVon McCormick: Crisp Game Changers Summit 3 Featured Speaker
5 minutes to read
It’s not often you hear from a keynote speaker who shares the real and raw trials and tribulations of their early life. Especially one as open as JeVon “JT” McCormick.
As he puts it — he never should have succeeded. But even born into a life where the world was poised against him… he did succeed.
Now, JeVon shares his story and the lessons he learned to help others succeed.
Having endured racism, abuse, living on welfare in the slums of Dayton, Ohio, his drug-dealing pimp father, multiple stints in the juvenile justice system, and more — JeVon still managed to hustle and work his way up from scrubbing toilets all the way to President of two multimillion-dollar companies.
How he got there, though, is something you have to hear from him yourself.
Jevon’s story is so unique and powerful, it’s almost impossible to express it simply in words on a page. You’ll want to experience this story live and in-person at the Crisp Game Changers Summit 3 in Atlanta this November 5-6 to reap the real benefits.
“I’m not a drug dealer. I’m not a rapper. I’m not an athlete. But I am very successful.
That’s not how you’re supposed to open a speech if you’re a successful businessman. Especially if you’re a successful minority businessman in America.
But I’m no ordinary businessman, this was no ordinary speech, and I’ve had no ordinary life.”
Who is JeVon McCormick?
JeVon McCormick is the President and CEO of Scribe Media. To say he had a difficult childhood would be an understatement. He has a unique perspective on adversity. Despite the unimaginably challenging circumstances in which he grew up, he has established himself in the entrepreneurial world and become an inspirational leader to many.
So, how did he go from his first job — cleaning toilets at Po’ Folks Restaurant — to serving as the President and CEO of multiple high-growth startups and winning Entrepreneur Magazine’s award for creating the #1 Company Culture in America?
JeVon’s message for leaders: “I didn’t succeed despite my upbringing; I succeeded because of it.”
Now, as a successful author, public speaker, and entrepreneur, he shares his story with huge crowds of some of the most influential and successful people in the world.
