He is chairman and founder of World Wide Technology, one of the largest African-American-owned businesses in America.
In 1953, the family moved to Clinton, Missouri.
As a child growing up in Clinton, Steward faced poverty and discrimination.

Steward received his BS degree in business from Central Missouri State University in 1973.
After graduating from college, Steward worked at Wagner Electric as a production manager (1974–1975), a sales representative at Missouri Pacific Railroad Company (1975–1979), and a senior account executive at Federal Express (1979–1984), where he was recognized as salesman of the year and inducted into the company's hall of fame in 1981.

In 1993, WWT concentrated its focus on the implementation of enterprise wide imaging, conversion services, and telecommunication networks.
In 1999 World Wide Technology spun off its telecommunications division to form Telcobuy.com.
Sales for the two companies continued to grow, although revenues slipped in 2002 as World Wide Technology felt the impact of the technology recession.
In 2003 combined reported revenues passed $1 billion, and Steward formed World Wide Technology Holding Company as the parent company for the two firms.
In 2011, Steward was appointed to the board of curators, University of Missouri by Governor Jay Nixon, although he resigned before his term was through.
Steward serves on the Washington University in St. Louis Board of Trustees.
