Jerome Mayne is founder and CEO of the former, Fraudcon, Inc. As a keynote speaker for over 20 years, he is one of the premier keynote business speakers on ethics, choices, and consequences in corporate America.

As a budding, young finance professional he was charged with conspiracy to commit mail fraud, wire fraud and money laundering. The charges stemmed from his seemingly normal actions years earlier. This resulted in a 21-month prison sentence and his life was changed forever.

He has written dozens of articles for industry trade publications as well as developed professional continuing education courses. The personal diary of his life in the business world and behind bars is documented in his autobiography, Diary of a White-Collar Criminal—now available on Audible.

With wit and passion, Jerome brings his intimate story as a former white-collar criminal to your event.  Your audience will take away life-saving lessons for themselves and know how to protect the company’s bottom line.

Jerome is also a former touring stand-up comedian.

CHOICE AND CONSEQUENCES -- MAKING GOOD DECISIONS BETTER

For 2 years his name was, Federal Inmate Number 08657-041.  Before that, Jerome Mayne was the founder and CEO of two corporations, respected in the financial community and the father of two young boys.  In 1999 he received a 21-month prison sentence for conspiracy to commit mail fraud, wire fraud and money laundering – crimes that took place four years earlier.  On November 4th, 1999, he reported to the Federal Prison in Yankton, South Dakota and his career and his life were changed forever.

Jerome keeps your audience riveted – laughing and sometimes crying.  He covers the ‘always relevant’ business topics of fraud and ethics with wit and passion.  It’s a ‘real-life’ lesson in ethics.

  • the devastating effects committing fraud has on the victims, your profession and your family
  • how to maintain a relationship with your kids through snail mail and collect phone calls

SURVIVE LIFE -- AND LAUGH YOURSELF TO DEATH

How does a motivational keynote speaker, cancer survivor, who is also a convicted felon, live a happy life?  In this keynote presentation, the answers will actually have you laughing.

Life Is: losing a job, a death in the family, a sudden change in financial stability, a life-threatening illness.

We all have problems. Our character is defined by how we deal with them.  Adversity, obstacles and challenges will shut us down and change who we are forever — if we let them.

Jerome Mayne tells his story; how he overcame adversity and found humor in the middle of a nightmare: cancer, while of serving almost 21 months in federal prison as well as quadruple by-pass open heart surgery.

This dynamic keynote presentation by a top-rated keynote speaker, is riveting as well as humorous and will demonstrate that you can overcome any life obstacles.

Keynote: 1 – 2 hrs.
