Podcast appearances and mentions of Fred Reichheld

If you believe the highest goal of investing is simply to earn a high return, you may be overlooking a deeper purpose—how our money can be used for good.As investors, we've been given resources to manage, not just for profit, but in alignment with God's will and values. It's easy to see investing through a purely earthly lens, but God invites us into a much greater story. Today, Robin John joins us to explore that bigger vision.Robin John is co-founder and Chief Executive Officer at Eventide Asset Management, an underwriter of Faith & Finance. He's also the author of the forthcoming book, The Good Investor: How Your Work Can Confront Injustice, Love Your Neighbor, and Bring Healing to the World.A Vision for Redemptive InvestingEventide's tagline—“Investing that makes the world rejoice”—is more than marketing. It's a biblical conviction inspired by Proverbs:“When the righteous prosper, the city rejoices, but when the wicked perish, there are shouts of joy.” – Proverbs 11:10Righteousness, in this context, refers to those who seek the good of others. The righteous prosper by looking out for the people in the city. But the wicked prosper through exploitation, especially of the poor. That leads to groaning, not rejoicing.For Eventide, investing is about more than avoiding harm. It's about actively investing in companies whose products and practices bring tangible good into the world—serving real needs, not exploiting vulnerabilities.Can You Do Good and Do Well?A common concern among faith-based investors is whether aligning values with investments means sacrificing returns.Romans 12 tells us “not to conform to the patterns of this world but be transformed by the renewing of our minds.” That means we should be willing to make sacrifices if necessary. But that doesn't mean underperformance.Research from the Biblically Responsible Investing Institute, drawing on a 19-year study, compares values-based screening (which excludes companies involved in activities such as abortion, pornography, and tobacco) with the S&P 500 and yields equivalent long-term returns.It's a myth that you must compromise performance to honor your faith. At Eventide, they don't just avoid the bad—we seek out the good.The Ultimate Question, as posed by Bain consultant Fred Reichheld, also found that the most successful companies are those that best serve their customers and employees. Serving people well is good business, and it often leads to long-term outperformance.Why How You Make Money MattersJohn Wesley once said, ‘Make all you can, give all you can, but make all you can without hurting yourself or your neighbor.”Proverbs 1:19 also warns against partnering with those who gain through unjust means. It's not just what we give—it's how we earn that matters to God. Ill-gotten gain is not pleasing to Him.Generosity isn't limited to charitable giving. A teacher choosing to serve children instead of pursuing a higher-paying career is living generously, even without writing a check.The Good InvestorRobin's passion is to see everyday Christians empowered to invest in ways that reflect their values. His upcoming book, The Good Investor: How Your Work Can Confront Injustice, Love Your Neighbor, and Bring Healing to the World, aims to help believers do just that.The Good Investor doesn't stop at money—it's also a book about purpose and calling. Don't assume your calling means you have to start something new. Many Christians are exactly where God needs them to be. The real challenge is to recognize your work as valuable to God and do it in a way that reflects His goodness.Psalm 1:3 emphasizes that the blessed life is rooted in delighting in God's Word and walking in His ways:“That person is like a tree planted by streams of water...whatever they do prospers.”Robin's new book, The Good Investor: How Your Work Can Confront Injustice, Love Your Neighbor, and Bring Healing to the World, will be released on July 22 and is available for pre-order now wherever books are sold.This is a must-read for any Christian who wants to rethink investing through the lens of God's Kingdom—and rediscover the purpose and power of their everyday financial decisions.On Today's Program, Rob Answers Listener Questions:I have a 401(k) from my old school district job with approximately $7,000-$8,000 in it. I'm 55 and want to know if I should roll it over into my new company's retirement plan and what I should do with my IRA.I remarried after my first wife passed away. If I die, can my late wife's kids force my new wife out of our house, and how can I protect her?Resources Mentioned:Faithful Steward: FaithFi's New Quarterly MagazineEventide Asset ManagementThe Good Investor: How Your Work Can Confront Injustice, Love Your Neighbor, and Bring Healing to the World by Robin C.

“For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand, that we should walk in them.” - Ephesians 2:10Our good works are not for our sake but for God's sake, to give Him glory. Investing gives us a powerful way to do that. Today, we'll talk with Dr. Finny Kuruvilla about investing to change the world.Dr. Finny Kuruvilla is the Co-Chief Investment Officer and Founding Member of Eventide Asset Management, an underwriter of Faith & Finance. He holds an MD from Harvard Medical School, a PhD in Chemistry and Chemical Biology from Harvard University, a master's degree in Electrical Engineering and Computer Science from MIT, and a bachelor's degree from Caltech in Chemistry.The Purpose of InvestingInvesting has always been about supplying capital to businesses. This concept originated in the 1400s and 1500s with the rise of corporations, particularly those financing maritime trade. Investing primarily aims to fund companies to help them do good work. However, this purpose can be perverted to support businesses that go against God's design for humanity. Hence, it's crucial to remember that investing should always aim to fund ethical companies.Investing as OwnershipWhen you invest, you become a part-owner of a company, which carries an ethical responsibility. Like owning a small business, you are accountable for the actions of the companies you invest in. This ownership confers a duty to ensure these businesses align with your values and promote good.Integrity in InvestingRomans 12:9 states, "Let love be without hypocrisy. Abhor what is evil; cling to what is good." This principle applies to investing as well. To maintain integrity, you should avoid profiting from industries that contradict your values, such as pornography or tobacco. Instead, invest in businesses that advance the common good, like those making significant strides in healthcare and biotechnology.For example, advances in treatments for leukemia have dramatically increased children's survival rates, thanks to innovative companies in the healthcare sector. These companies exemplify how investment capital can drive significant positive outcomes.Performance and OutperformanceInvesting in businesses that promote the common good can lead to long-term outperformance. Studies, like those referenced in Fred Reichheld's "Winning on Purpose" and Alex Edmans' "Grow the Pie," show that companies adding value to their stakeholders often outperform their peers. This approach aligns with the biblical principle of loving your neighbor and can result in superior long-term returns.Eventide's ApproachEventide uses a framework called Business 360 to evaluate how companies interact with various stakeholders, including customers, employees, and the community. By focusing on companies excelling in value creation, Eventide aims to identify businesses aligned with promoting the global common good and likely to outperform over the long term.The future is bright for Faith-Based Investing because of the growing awareness in faith-based and secular circles that investing inherently involves ethical considerations. This awareness will lead to more opportunities to use investment dollars constructively, promoting values that align with a vision for a better world.Investing with integrity means aligning your investments with your values and ethical responsibilities. As Christians, this involves avoiding industries that contradict biblical principles and supporting those that advance the common good. Doing so can achieve both financial returns and a positive global impact. To learn more about this approach to investing, visit Eventide Funds.On Today's Program, Rob Answers Listener Questions:I heard somewhere that you can take 4% a year out of your 401(k)s, and they should last you, but I'm looking for information like that.

Business is not just about making money. Business owners, especially those starting out, should have a clearly stated purpose or the essence of the organization. More than the numbers and figures, businesses exist to provide value to their customers.  Likewise, customers recognize value when you provide them with products and services worth their time, effort, and money. Most of them, if not all, crave a personalized experience and want to feel cared for.  Fred Reichheld, also known as the “high priest” of loyalty and the creator of the Net Promoter System℠ (NPS®), joins us on the Greatness Machine to talk about customer loyalty and his book, Winning on Purpose. In this episode, Darius and Fred discuss what great leadership looks like, the key driver of customer loyalty, and the ways to enrich the lives of other people.

Les enquestes NPS són un instrument imprescindible per al màrqueting de recomanació (referral marketing). Ja n'hem parlat; ho podeu recuperar al darrer post. Ara bé, la immensa majoria d'escoles que la fan, no en saben treure tot el profit. N'obtenen la xifra NPS, que serveix com a indicador quantificat de la valoració del servei, i això està molt bé. I, d'altra banda, disposen d'un llistat de les causes de la satisfacció o la insatisfacció, més o menys extens, segons l'encert que hagint tingut en la forma de demanar-ho. Això, sens dubte, ja és moltíssim, perquè compten amb una checklist d'accions de millora.Però no és prou. Podem fer que les enquestes NPS siguin extraordinàriament profitoses. Com? Aconseguint que no siguin anònimes. Sí. Això és el que proposa Fred Reichheld (que és qui va inventar les enquestes NPS) en el llibre La pregunta decisiva 2.0.En l'episdo anterior, he explicat què són les enquestes NPS.https://brandingescolar.com/nps-cat/

Thousands of companies around the world have adopted the Net Promoter System (NPS) since its conception two decades ago by my guest, Fred Reichheld. During this episode, Fred explains the newest thinking (NPS 3.0), and best practices for doing it right, as many practitioners achieve a fraction of the system's full potential. We also talk about "Winning On Purpose" and enriching customer lives. Because, when customers feel loved, they come back for more and bring friends—generating good profits. You'll also hear about Earned Growth Rate (EGR): a complementary accounting measure leveraging the power of NPS, and more ways to measure business success. More info: DoingCXRight.com/podcasts

But how do you get boards and shareholders to abandon quick profits and invest in the long-term goal of customer satisfaction? In this episode of the podcast, Fred Reichheld, a Bain fellow, creator of the Net Promoter System, and author of the new book Winning on Purpose: The Unbeatable Strategy of Loving Customers, shares how leaders should be using NPS correctly to succeed in the long run.

“Love” isn't a word you often hear in business. It seems to run counter to the calculated numbers and tedious plans crafted in many boardrooms.

A central theme in Fred Reichheld's new book, Winning on Purpose: The Unbeatable Strategy of Loving Customers, which releases December 7, is purpose. For Fred, a well-defined company purpose is the engine that drives success. But it's not enough. To succeed, an organization's No. 1 goal should always be to make customers' lives better.
