Phil Pallen
M.Sc.
CA, USPhil Pallen isn't in the business of sugarcoating. He's in the business of social media.
An acclaimed keynote speaker at conferences around the world, Phil deconstructs social media to empower leaders, employees, and entrepreneurs. He's a motivational burst of energy that'll challenge audiences to be better than ever before.
In Phil's keynotes, audience will learn how to:
- Use social media in a way that's effective, not time consuming
- Stand out against their competitors
- Find their brand voice
- Build relationships with customers
- Establish a company culture that empowers employees online
- Think of their brand as an untapped business tool
Phil's career began unlike most. A Canadian from a small town near Ottawa, he had big dreams of moving to LA to become a TV host. A friend submitted his name for Charlie Sheen's social media intern search. What started as a playful "what could be" chuckle ended up in an intense competition with 90,000 other applicants. In a time when social media was still new, Phil dove right in—developed a full-fledged personal campaign, and it garnered over 100 media placements across TV, radio, and print.
Phil's success in the social media search resulted in entrepreneurs knocking on his door, begging for a brand. Following demand, he created agency Phil Pallen Collective, rolled up his sleeves and began teaching personal branding for the masses. He's worked with over 200 clients scattered across the globe. You've seen them making deals on Shark Tank, advising country leaders, strutting their stuff on Dancing with the Stars, winning a Nobel Peace Prize, and transforming the world with an incredible business idea.
Today, Phil flies over 150k miles a year, sharing his social media and branding systems as a keynote speaker at conferences like iMedia Brand Summit Japan and New Media Europe. Phil is a frequently featured expert on international media outlets, including Access Hollywood, CNN, Entertainment Tonight, the DailyMail, and the Toronto Star, to name a few.
If you want a fresh perspective on how social media really works, Phil is the speaker for you. Phil teaches people to embrace adversity, find their voice, develop an effective brand, and use social media to build meaningful relationships for long-term business success. You'll laugh, think, and be more inspired than ever.
