Jason Scott is a CEO, founder, speaker, author, instructor, location-independent nomad and expert in transformational leadership that gets things done.
As CEO of 120VC, Jason has spent over 20 years leading global transformational efforts for DirecTV, Trader Joe’s, Blizzard Entertainment, RIOT Games, Sony Pictures, ResMed, AAG, Universal Music Group, Remitly, and others.
He is the author of two Amazon bestselling books: "It's Never Just Business: It's about People" and “The Irreverent Guide to Project Management: An Agile Approach to Enterprise Project Management.”
Jason is one the most sought-after keynote speakers for his unique, people-centric and outcome-obsessed approach to change. His passion to mentor and train a new generation of leaders led him to start the Transformational Leadership Academy where he leads a 14-week certification program. In 2020, Jason launched the 120 Brand Community, featuring Brick and Matter CO, BAMCO, a brand accelerator transforming how brands can go to market, and Next Jump Outfitters, an overland guide and eCommerce business transforming how people balance work and play as digital nomads.
He's uncovered some universal truths along the way: organizations are optimized for the results they're getting, and to get different results, humans need to perform their jobs differently.
But here's the kicker: humans crave success in all areas of their lives, and nobody knows how to be successful doing their job differently. That's where leaders come in - to help people feel safe to experiment and slay new ways of working.
J. Scott is a regular guy who's proven that actions speak louder than words.
