Bobby Jones Speaker Biography
Bobby Jones is a best-selling author, renowned speaker, conscious capitalism expert, and businessman on an inspiring mission to show individuals and companies worldwide how to be forces for good. Bobby's keynotes and workshops have provided business and culture leaders with an essential roadmap for mastering the key principles of purpose and purpose-driven marketing. His work helps leaders drive growth and impact and find lasting fulfillment and meaning in their work, igniting a fire in them that has transformed their lives and the world for the better.
At the height of his career as a marketing executive, Bobby experienced a lack of meaningfulness in his life. He often wondered if his work was making any real difference in the world and searched for a way to pay the bills while doing work with a higher purpose. He knew he was not alone. Many of his colleagues working in agencies, brands, and culture felt a similar void in their work lives.
With a burning desire to live a more fulfilling life, Bobby went on a self-discovery journey to find his purpose in life. The Story of The Two Wolves inspired him. He realized that in a culture that seemed to be feeding people's divisiveness, greed, and disregard for others, and our planet, he wanted to use his talents to show people in business and culture how to find purpose as powerful forces for good. This clarity of purpose led to his first book Good is the New Cool: Market Like You Give a Damn (co-authored with Afdhel Aziz), a bold manifesto and how-to-guide to do well by doing good, which became a best seller.
Since then, Bobby has helped ignite and serve a global movement using culture and commerce to create a better world. His work has helped people in over 147 counties to develop solutions to global challenges. His talks, consultations, and workshops have provided some of the biggest companies, NGOs, and celebrities with the tools to unlock their purpose and grow their businesses and brands by serving others.
