About Me

If you have an organization that’s doing really great work, but you need improvements, I can help.  I train startups (seed stage and beyond,) fortune 100 and fortune 500 companies both live and virtually on a variety of topics designed to offload a decade of on-the-ground experience in just a day or two.

As an expert on scaling startups, I’ve trained companies to scale their revenues, their teams, their process and more.  From generating an additional $1MM in revenue, handling billions of daily transactions at 1/100th of the traditional cost, onboarding over 112MM monthly users, hiring world class engineering teams and creating freedom through process and automation — these trainings can have a massive impact on your bottom line.

My background as a founder, startup tech exec and former big corporate tech leader allows me to connect with people across all walks of business.  Combine that with my unique skills as a black belt (Jeet Kune Do) gives me a unique perspective that’s been described as “inspiring, innovative and informative.”

 

“Steve Eakin is an incredibly powerful speaker, and I say that not just because he’s one of the most knowledgable people I’ve ever met when it comes to technology and startups, but because he know how to connect with the audience in a way that encourages and inspires them to think bigger and feel like they too can accomplish big things.  Definitely hire him.” – Daniel DiPiazza, Founder & CEO, Rich20Something

Secure My Startup:  How to “batten down the hatches” and make sure your organization is safe from security breaches.

Summary

There are a ton of reasons to care about security.  Maybe you’re afraid of what investors and shareholders would do if there was a public breach?  Maybe your customers or clients would abandon ship and switch to your competitors?  Maybe you can’t afford to spend hundreds of millions of dollars digging out of the hole that a breach would put you in?

Maybe it’s all of the above…

The bottom line is that security matters.  It doesn’t matter if you’re doing $1MM in annual revenue, or $100BN.  It doesn’t matter if you have 10 employees or 10,000.  Security will always matter.

Organization Takeaways

  • How a small security breach can absolutely devastate your business.
  • Immediate steps to plug any open security holes and ensure your organization is safe.
  • Why a “security first” culture is the best defense against possible threats.
