From Prison Yard to Harvard Yard with Andre Norman

Andre will share his life journey from poverty, an abusive father, and gangs to over 100 years sentenced in prison.

While there, he rose to become a prison gang leader, managing several prisons with thousands of inmates, overseeing all of its commerce/contraband & employees/gang members, while fending off hostile takeovers (being killed) from rival companies/gangs.

Andre’s realization began after an epiphany that gave him a goal of attending Harvard University and helping people. The lessons learned from this impossible journey from prison gang leader to fellow at Harvard Law School will apply to anyone listening.

Some highlights of Andre’s journey:–

• Trainer at London Business School Executive Education Dept

• Top-rated resource for YPO, with an evaluation average of 9.8 (including five “perfect 10s”)

• Leader of a crisis team that was called in and ended the Ferguson Riots

• Created the international Violence Interrupters Model for gang interventions

• Leads his crisis team to support suburban youth & families battling drug addiction

Andre will share his journey, with lessons about teamwork, networking, team building, reflective listening, and goal setting. His story is one of a kind and his speaking ability unmatched.
