Why this is for you

With purpose failing, great brands win by putting people in charge. From ocean plastic to diversity, most companies today are firmly on the social and environmental issues bandwagon like bees around a honey pot. At the same time, people are growing increasingly distrustful towards these efforts viewed as cheap marketing stunts meant to wow people into buying more. “Try to fly like a superman, and you will come down like a tin of soup.” Internationally recognized purpose pioneer Thomas Kolster takes a hatchet to his earlier beliefs and warns organizations and leaders to stop putting themselves first when it comes to purpose. Drawing on top-line marketing case studies and in-depth interviews, Kolster will demonstrate how people are truly motivated to act when they’re in charge of their own life and happiness. ‘Who can you help me become?’ is the one essential question you need to be asking and acting on to chart a new course for your organisation, changing behaviors at scale and unlocking sustainable growth that benefits all.

  • Learn how to create an authentic brand that will make people truly care and act!
  • Learn how to play a more meaningful and authentic role in people’s lives
  • Learn how to move from generic issues like plastic waste to making a real difference
  • Learn how to create scalable campaigns powered by passionate people
  • Learn how to create behaviour change at scale and ultimately unlock sales

Exclusive session for a limited number of attendees

This seminar has been designed as an exclusive event. That’s why it will only be open to up to 40 participants, so that each attendee gets as much hands-on experience as possible and there is plenty of time for discussion and Q&A.

Real practice over theory

Today, more than ever, you need best practices, tactics, and actionable frameworks rather than theory. So, that is exactly what this seminar with Thomas Kolster is about. Our trainer is a globally recognized keynote speaker with 100+ events under his belt and he is considered as one of the most authoritative thinkers on marketing for good. And the… good news is that he is eager to share his learnings on what works and what doesn’t.
