I Got There- JeVon McCormick

I Got There

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.

This is the opening to JeVon’s story, compellingly told in
I Got There.

Gripping, heartbreaking, enlightening, and ultimately uplifting, I Got There proves that no obstacle is too difficult to conquer–and that the game can be won by anyone, from anywhere

JeVon McCormick-Modern Leader Book

Modern Leader

By JeVon McCormick.
Foreword by David Goggins.

When did our leaders become followers? It happened when they realized the old corporate playbook no longer applies. Today, they have no idea where to look for guidance because everyone around them is in the same situation. The detrimental impact of the old playbook has never been more clear.

The problems we face today are unique to this moment. As a result, we are seeing what our leaders are really made of. We see leaders looking for leaders, and that’s not what leadership is supposed to be. Everyone wants to win, and they’re searching for the next play to run. But Modern Leaders don’t need a playbook, because leadership is not a game.
