WASHINGTON, D.C. – Dr. Todd Dewett, one of the world’s most watched leadership personalities and authenticity experts, will deliver the opening keynote during BrandStorm™ 2020, on Tuesday, February 11 in Austin, TX. A best-selling author at LinkedIn Learning, a TEDx speaker, and an Inc. Magazine Top 100 leadership speaker, Todd will share his decades of research and business experience that helped him realize that too many people, teams, and companies, lacked one key ingredient: authenticity.
“Authenticity is paramount to effective brand marketing,” said Mary
Coppola, Vice President of Marketing & Communications, United Fresh. “We’re
excited for Dr. Dewett to inspire the produce marketing community at BrandStorm,
where attendees will learn to leverage the power of authenticity in their own day-to-day business and
personal interactions.”
After beginning his career with Andersen
Consulting and Ernst & Young, Todd completed his PhD in Organizational
Behavior at Texas A&M University and enjoyed a career as an award-winning
professor and scholar. He has most recently addressed brand clients such as, Microsoft,
ExxonMobil, Pepsi, Boeing, General Electric and Caterpillar.
