  • Jeff Martinovich

    When Not If: A CEO’s guide to Overcoming Adversity Jeff Martinovich When Not If: A CEO’s guide to Overcoming Adversity Jeff Martinovich built a billion-dollar investment firm from scratch, only to watch it collapse after being wrongly indicted. Standing firm in his beliefs, he rejected three federal plea offers and demanded a trial against the United States Government. Despite being convicted and sentenced to 14 years in a violent, 4,000-man prison, Jeff refused to give up. Ruined, broke, and desperate, he taught himself federal criminal law, represented himself in court, and successfully reversed the court’s decisions five times. He even removed two federal judges and made it home seven years earlier than expected, surviving one miracle after another. A U.S. Air Force First Gulf War veteran, Forbes Books-featured author, and writer of a #1 Amazon bestseller, Jeff now shocks and educates audiences on the trench warfare needed to survive—and thrive—through strength, resilience, and intelligence. His mission is to teach CEOs, business leaders, and entrepreneurs the hard-earned lessons he learned so that they can avoid the pitfalls he never saw coming, and better protect their companies and families from dangers they might never expect. In his keynote, Cautionary Tale: This Could Happen to You Next Tuesday , Jeff shares the harrowing journey of defending his innocence against a government system determined to destroy his life. He offers invaluable lessons from his fight for freedom and justice, warning that even the most successful leaders must be prepared for life’s unexpected “black swan” events. He emphasizes that everyone will eventually face overwhelming challenges, and by preparing now—embracing fear, risk, and resilience—leaders will be equipped to turn disadvantages into advantages when the time comes. While Jeff’s talks are both wildly entertaining and deeply personal, they are also packed with actionable lessons and insights that leaders can apply immediately, no matter their business or personal station in life.
