STEVEN WORTH, INDEPENDENT ADVISOR

Steven Worth, an accomplished lawyer, executive, volunteer, and athlete, is an advisor to technology companies, nonprofits, and foundations. After attending Cornell, he went on to earn his J.D. and MBA degrees from the University of Wisconsin. Like his academic achievements, his professional career has been both varied and deep. Starting out in finance and tax, Worth went on to Winston & Strawn where he represented clients across a broad range of commercial matters before he transitioned to the corporate world as a three-time General Counsel/Chief Legal Officer. His strong finance and operational skills also led to serving as a public company Interim CEO and as Interim CFO. “Legal and regulatory issues constantly surround organizations,” says Worth, and he finds it “vital to connect those legal issues with business strategies and goals. There are amazing things happening right now at the intersection of privacy, technology, public policy, and law for example.” Having worked in cybersecurity and as an operational executive, Worth aims for value-added insight that is practical, risk-adjusted, and takes into account the organization’s mission. While he has more than 25 years of experience in the for-profit sector, including running a public company, Worth has also worked nearly that long with nonprofits. He has been a volunteer, an advisor, an officer, and a fundraiser for a variety of organizations with a particular emphasis on health/wellness, veterans’ causes, and the environment. He continues to bring his unique and broad experience base to firms where he shares a passion for their mission.
