KEYNOTE SPEAKERS

Be the SPARK: Five Platinum Service Principles for Creating Customers for Life Presented by Mr. Simon Bailey
Former Sales Director, Disney Institute and Best-Selling Author

If you’re unforgettable, you’ll create a customer for life – and in this service-driven economy, where automation and algorithms have replaced personal interaction, every moment is an opportunity to create a memory in the hearts and lives of your clients and team members.

In this presentation, Mr. Bailey leverages what he’s learned over 30 years of working for six different companies, including the Disney Institute and The Ritz-Carlton Learning Institute, to create moments that matter. Simon leans on evidence-based research to provide tried-and-true methods that work for everyone, no matter the job title.

Relationships are the currency of the future. Mr. Bailey will help you break through and transform from good service to Platinum Service, thereby creating brand champions who become customers for life.

The Compelling Argument with Value Investing: Lessons from a Fund Manager Presented by Mr. Steven Romick
Managing Partner, First Pacific Advisors, LLC

Historically, academic research has suggested that value investing has proven to be the best strategy for long-term investors. For the last nine years, investors’ faith in looking for cheaply valued stocks has been challenged.

Mr. Romick serves as portfolio manager for the FPA Crescent Fund, Source Capital Inc. and the FPA Multi-Advisor Strategy. With close to three decades and approximately $30 billion under management, Mr. Romick will share lessons learned in value investing. He will touch on how he thinks about investing, risk and reflect on some of his more memorable positive and negative investment experiences.
