Shaun Hayes

Shaun Hayes was the cofounder and former CEO of Allegiant Bancorp, headquartered in St. Louis, Missouri. Among many other enterprises, he owned a company that he sold at age 44 for half a billion dollars. Five years after selling his company, Shaun committed a felony. He was incarcerated for his crime eight years later. He now shares what he learned from his rise and his fall—hard-won lessons that can benefit individuals, groups, and businesses.
