Uncompromising: An Unwavering Commitment to Your FIGHT
Steve White’s remarkable journey from the housing projects to the board room is one of vision, grit and a relentless focus on possibility and purpose.
As one of four boys raised by a single mother, Steve’s life could easily have taken a different path. Instead, armed with his mother’s determination that her sons make a better life for themselves and his own refusal to be shaped by his circumstances, Steve forged a path to extraordinary professional and personal satisfaction and achievement.
Today Steve is not only a son and a brother, but also a husband, father and business leader with responsibility for $18B in annual revenue.
Steve’s lessons from every stage of his life, and the people who influenced him along the way, form the basis of his overarching message: An UNCOMPROMISING life is one where you stay true to what is important to you, what you believe in and what you love.
It leads to more fulfillment, purpose and a lasting legacy.
An uncompromising approach to life means you are fiercely independent, radically responsible, scrappy and possess an undistracted mindset. It also means you have an unwavering commitment to your FIGHT, which is defined by your core values, passion and purpose. You have the courage of your convictions, stay locked-in on your goals, get up when you fall and continue to forge ahead.
As a gifted storyteller who engages audiences with authenticity, humor and humility, Steve’s hard-won insights help your audience FIND THEIR FIGHT–what matters most–and where they can make the biggest difference.
