We discuss “We first capitalism' and the need to fully cost the impact of our products and production processes on the planet.   He reminds us of some fundamental truths- “we are nature, human nature- the human expression of nature' and we need to right-size our relationship with the planet. We also explore how marketing has evolved- how purposeful brands are about movement-making that engages stakeholders in activism with the brand. He explains how this is so easy and yet so very hard to do in today's marketplace – the key is consistency.

In this episode of The Power Producers Podcast, David Carothers and co-host Kyle Houck interview Simon Mainwaring, bestselling author of Lead With We & We First and the host of the We First podcast. Simon shares his insights on the importance of having a positive social impact as a business and how businesses can effectively brand and market their impact. Episode Highlights: Simon discusses how his experience as the Worldwide Creative Director at Olgivy, working on campaigns with big brands, including Nike and Adidas, shaped his first and second books. (2:55) Simon explains that the reality of the society we live in requires businesses to have a positive impact, and you have to communicate that story, which is what people will react to. (9:20) David believes that there's a lot to be learned from the big brands from a marketing standpoint. (15:38) Simon mentions that to avoid greenwashing, companies should establish a purpose, create a relational dynamic with customers, align their products with customer values, and regularly check in with customers to offer products that meet their changing needs. (17:32) Simon discusses the importance of building trust and understanding customers' values and pain points to reverse engineer offerings and products, which leads to increased sales and customer loyalty. (23:12) Simon explains that in order to build a business by doing good, it is important to communicate in a collaborative way, using language that emphasizes mutual benefit, and to switch between self-directed signals and a collaborative sales process, as outlined in the book "Lead with We". (28:50)  David discusses the importance of ingraining a consistent culture throughout an organization, which should be adopted by everyone from top to bottom and align with the organization's core values, rather than just being implemented for the sake of increasing sales or profitability.

In this episode of The Power Producers Podcast, David Carothers and co-host Kyle Houck interview Simon Mainwaring, bestselling author of Lead With We & We First and the host of the We First podcast. Simon shares his insights on the importance of having a positive social impact as a business and how businesses can effectively brand and market their impact. Episode Highlights: Simon discusses how his experience as the Worldwide Creative Director at Olgivy, working on campaigns with big brands, including Nike and Adidas, shaped his first and second books. (2:55) Simon explains that the reality of the society we live in requires businesses to have a positive impact, and you have to communicate that story, which is what people will react to. (9:20) David believes that there's a lot to be learned from the big brands from a marketing standpoint. (15:38) Simon mentions that to avoid greenwashing, companies should establish a purpose, create a relational dynamic with customers, align their products with customer values, and regularly check in with customers to offer products that meet their changing needs. (17:32) Simon discusses the importance of building trust and understanding customers' values and pain points to reverse engineer offerings and products, which leads to increased sales and customer loyalty. (23:12) Simon explains that in order to build a business by doing good, it is important to communicate in a collaborative way, using language that emphasizes mutual benefit, and to switch between self-directed signals and a collaborative sales process, as outlined in the book "Lead with We". (28:50)  David discusses the importance of ingraining a consistent culture throughout an organization, which should be adopted by everyone from top to bottom and align with the organization's core values, rather than just being implemented for the sake of increasing sales or profitability. (38:05) Simon mentions that aligning personal values with professional life can enhance personal well-being and improve business, leading to deeper connections, integrity, and authenticity in sales.

When we look at fundraising, we tend to silo marketing, acquisition, cultivation, and stewardship. But Simon Mainwaring, my guest on this episode of What the Fundraising, is explaining why in fact they are all a piece of the puzzle. He is breaking down for us the ways in which each element of the donor journey is a link in the chain that is indicative of the nonprofit's overall brand. When we get the marketing right, our donors connect and invest for the long haul. As CEO of the strategic consulting firm We First Branding, Simon is all about locking in the messages that articulate purpose and motivate action. Working with nonprofits and for-profits alike, his focus is on heart-centered principles and storytelling that resonate universally.  You'll come away with actionable ways to define your organization's narrative, audit the efficacy of its marketing messages, and make change through co-creative processes. If you're looking for fresh ways to forge a meaningful and ongoing connection with donors in 2023, then you'll want to join us in taking a look at the importance of perspective and tone. Are your fundraising communications too internally focused or self-serving? Do your contributors know exactly the impact their support is making? “If you tell the story in the right way it can really deeply resonate with people and inspire them to be a part of something larger than themselves,” says Simon. “And the way you do that is by building a brand.” It's an iterative process and we're here to get you moving in the right direction.

As a global keynote speaker, New York Times bestselling author of We First and LEAD WITH WE, and highly-awarded brand futurist, he works with leading CEOs, CMOs, and entrepreneurs to define their business strategy, company culture, and brand communications.   Simon is a sought-after international speaker whose presentations engage and inspire audiences to think and act in new ways that LEAD WITH WE around a collectivized purpose. He has been voted a Top 5 Marketing Speaker by speaking.com for 5 years in a row, and featured on the cover of the National Speaker's Magazine. From the Cannes Lions Festival to Google,  from Necker Island with Sir Richard Branson to the United Nations Foundation, and now on The Leadership Podcast,  he delivers a roadmap for revolutionizing your business from the ground up by factoring all “shareholders” into your collective future for all your business decisions.   Key Takeaways [2:20] Simon talks about his two daughters who have been trapeze artists since they were three years old. [4:05] Spending fifteen years in big creative advertising agencies, Simon shares his views on capitalism and how his opinions have evolved. [6:10] Simon thought about using the power of storytelling in business to make a difference, which led to his dialogue around capitalism. [7:25] Simon explains where the danger comes from when influence turns into manipulation. [8:50] It's a constant in human nature to play with power but there is nowhere to hide now. The motive will eventually get exposed. [10:50] Capitalism as we know it is dead; it has evolved. Simon expands on this further. [12:40] Business leaders and owners will suffer if the societies they live in fail. It is best to re-engineer capitalism that better serves people and the planet. [13:55] Do well by doing good vs. the virtuous spiral of collectivized purpose and action. Simon explains what that means and how they differ. [16:40] COVID-19's silver lining is that it has been a massive global moment of reflection. Simon shares his thoughts further on the current generation's awareness that our future is compromised as an optimistic period. [18:45] Strategy vs. tactical execution. Simon shares his objections to stakeholder capitalism. [20:30] Our actions are levers for change if we look at it through the lens of collective action. [24:40] We have defaulted to what makes us the most money, the fastest way, and at the greatest convenience for everyone. Simon describes how that impacts us now. [28:00] There is a great opportunity to leverage social media to reweave the social fabric and remind us of what connects us rather than divides us. Simon shares his thoughts further. [30:40] Much of today's capitalism transpires through the internet. Jim asks Simon about his thoughts on social media companies' influence on commerce. [35:45] Humanity is staring itself in the mirror right now and it's got two versions of reality right now. Simon talks about what they are. [34:40] Jan also asks Simon which brands he thinks are doing things right that others can model from. [37:20] Simon talks about the new generation of entrepreneurs that are coming through and how that makes him optimistic about the future. He shares some examples. [39:35] Jim asks Simon what story comes to his mind that helps us get a better lens on leadership. [44:15] The luxury of thinking about how to fix our future is scarce. Simon shares how we can best create a better future. [46:20] Listener Challenge: 1. Trust your abilities as a leader. 2. Define your company purpose. 3. Work with your team.   Quotable Quotes “There was no strategic plan in place, I just happen to be somebody who's been lucky enough to have an experience on the power of storytelling.” “I do think it's a constant of human nature that people would play at it or pay lip service to something but there is nowhere to hide now; you're gonna be exposed by your customers, you're gonna be exposed by your employees, you're gonna be exposed by your investors.” “Capitalism can remain constant but how it shows up can evolve and that's peculiar to the circumstances we're in.” “Companies and brands cannot survive in societies that fail.” “It just means that we've got to create the synergies and compounding effect between all these individual efforts and companies so that we can meet these challenges with equal force because it is all of our actions that got us into this mess in the first place.”   Resources Mentioned Theleadershippodcast.com Sponsored by: Darley.com Simonmainwaring.com Simon on LinkedIn Simon on Twitter Grab Simon's book: We First: How Brands and Consumers Use Social Media to Build a Better World
