About Cody Harvey

UNLIKELY CEO

There is something about Cody.

Cody Harvey, 32, the co-founder of Kennected, is hard to quantify in a Silicon-Valley-CEO type of way. It is hard to fit this country -boy-done-good into a proverbial box. Harvey, an entrepreneurial phenom, who, less than a decade ago perfected the art of couch surfing with $1 to his name, is reimagining the digital tech world in an old-fashioned way.

Kennected, an Indiana-based tech company, led by Harvey and his self-proclaimed merry band of rogue millennials are rethinking what tech should look like. Kennected is a sales enablement company that specializes in outreach & prospecting tools around LinkedIn and has made the Inc. 5000 list again. For 2022, Kennected landed at #438. Their rapid rise to becoming the “darlings of midwest tech”, is rooted in a deep understanding of the power of creating a Monthly Recurring Revenue (and then 10x’ing it)

STATS:

Kennected’s MMR: (year over year growth)

2019 to 2020 692%

2020 to 2021 100%

2021 to 2022 70%

The Hallmark of Harvey’s Leadership:

Harvey’s journey from LA Fitness Manger to multi-million dollar CEO of one of the fastest growing tech companies in the US is built on the foundation that a hearty handshake and eye-to-eye connection, is the trajectory to build an empire. Harvey is commanding corporate brilliance in an old-fashioned way, reminiscent of the 20th-century tycoon, Cornelius Vanderbilt. Vanderbilt built his fortune in the railroads and was not an originator of daring, untried experiments; he was not fond of radical steps. His temperament was conservative. He steadied the new frontier of Corporate America by championing solid, substantial growth.

The Tech CEO Who Is The Antithesis of Silicon Valley (And Why It Works)

Harvey understands the power of a handshake. Snuggled in the warm embrace of Midwest cultural norms, Harvey, does not reject the direction Silicon Valley takes corporate environments. In fact, the home office in Indianapolis, gives a fervent nod to the laissez-faire constructs Google, Apple, and Microsoft. Kennected allows its employees to embrace the power of autonomy by personalizing the trajectory of AI.

Grassroots-fed and grassroots-led, Harvey is hitting the stomping grounds in 2023, with a nod to whistle-stop campaigns of yesteryear, meeting his constituency with a single satchel, his laptop, and a hearty handshake
