For more than two decades, he has helped executives, founders, and teams harness the power of community as a strategic asset to drive growth, strengthen trust, deepen loyalty, and transform how organizations adapt in a rapidly changing world. A longtime leader in enterprise community building, Chris has shaped customer and employee communities for some of the world’s most innovative companies. His work blends business strategy, neuroscience-backed trust research, and human-centered leadership to create systems that empower people, accelerate innovation, and unlock sustainable competitive advantage.
