#251) From the Projects to the Board Room: Steve White on The Great Resignation, Finding Your Purpose, and Living with No Excuses

Why you will want to listen to this episode. [Rising from the ranks isn’t an easy feat to do and requires a lot of attitude and effort. This episode is all about Steve White’s journey from the projects to the board room. We’ll talk about how he eventually overcame so many life obstacles, and how you, too, can overcome them amidst a global pandemic.]

Today I brought on the amazing Steve White — businessman, philanthropist, and author.

Steve White was President of Comcast’s West Division for eleven years, launching his career in 1996 as Regional Vice President. He was responsible for all Comcast Cable operations in the Western U.S., leading nearly thirty thousand employees, serving almost ten million customers, and driving annual revenue of nearly $18 billion. 

Giving back and paying it forward are two of Steve White’s life values. He has lived in Denver for more than 10 years and champions cause related to family and education, such as the Denver Scholarship Fund. Steve’s currently a member of the Colorado Forum, Executive Leadership Council (ELC), and the Delta Eta Boulé of Denver. 

Steve White is authoring a new book titled, Uncompromising: How an Unwavering Commitment to Your Why Leads to an Impactful Life and a Lasting Legacy. This book explores the defining – often heart-wrenching – moments on Steve’s path from the housing projects to the president of Comcast West and how he positively made a difference in his life and for those around him.

So as you can see, Steve is going to be amazing as we’ll tackle head-on why people are resigning from their jobs even during the pandemic, and how we can be responsible for our own future!
