Stan Phelps Keynoting 19th Annual Cause Conference Sept 8th @ UC San Diego:
Stan Phelps to Keynote
Cause Conference 2017
Maximizing Your Impact Through The Power Of Purpose
CCSD, AMA SD and SDNA, are thrilled to announce that author and speaker Stan Phelps will keynote the 19th Annual Cause Conference. Phelps inspires organizations and brands to be remarkable, showing them how to stand out in ways that customers and employees can’t help but talk about. His informative keynotes and workshops focus on the impact of purpose in business, the value of customer experience as a competitive differentiator, and the role of employee engagement in building a strong corporate culture.
An IBM Futurist, TEDx Speaker and Forbes Contributor, Phelps has spoken at over 250 events, on every inhabited continent, in over a dozen countries, for Fortune 100 brands such as IBM, Target, ESPN, UPS, GlaxoSmithKline and Citi.
He is the author of the six-book Goldfish series:
- Red Goldfish – Motivating Sales and Loyalty Through Shared Passion & Purpose
- Purple Goldfish – 12 Ways to Win Customers and Influence Word of Mouth
- Green Goldfish – Beyond Dollars: 15 Ways to Drive Employee Engagement
- Golden Goldfish – The Vital Few: All Customers and Employees Are Not Created Equal
- Blue Goldfish – Using Technology, Data and Analytics to Drive Both Profits & Prophets
- Purple Goldfish Service Edition – The 12 Ways Hotels, Restaurants & Airlines Win the Right Customers
According to Phelps, putting purpose first benefits employees, shareholders and customers. Business 1.0 focused on shareholders. Business 2.0 was all about customers. Now, business 3.0 puts purpose first. Purpose-driven companies are dedicated to a purpose that drives employee engagement, fuels the bottom line, and makes an impact on the lives of those it serves. It is Phelps’ contention that, “By 2020 purpose will be the main driver of business, not corporate filing status. Companies will either be seen as ‘for purpose’ or ‘not for purpose’.”
DJ King, Cause Conference executive committee member and president of Conscious Capitalism San Diego said, “Stan’s latest book, Red Goldfish, offers fresh, entertaining and valuable insights into the positive impact of purpose-driven business, which is one of the key tenets of Conscious Capitalism. His keynote will set the stage for the conference journey toward achieving meaningful impact through aligning with our purpose.”
