Ep. 32: Jesan Sorrells - MA in Conflict Resolution Turned Entrepreneur & CEO
Description
Jesan pivoted from student affairs leadership to entrepreneurship in a novel fashion: He started with revisiting his grad school curriculum.
After combing through the syllabi from his master’s program, Jesan thought, “I could take that topic and turn it into a product.” And so he did, marketing his conflict resolution and reconciliation skills to business audiences willing to pay for them.
From his early solopreneur days of consulting and speaking engagements to founding HSCT Publishing, creating training programs, writing books, and hosting podcasts, Jesan centers his businesses on the idea of intentional leadership.
And it’s in no small part thanks to capitalizing on his MA work, adjuncting, and previous career in higher ed.
