Samuel Monnie: The Case for Values-Driven Growth

from The Provocateurs · host Thinkers50 & Deloitte

What if the biggest problem with marketing today is the way we’ve been taught to think about it?Samuel Monnie, once a “reformed marketer” but now “marketing reformer,” argues that traditional marketing frameworks like the 4Ps (product, price, place, promotion) no longer reflect the world we live in. Instead, we should look towards a more human model: purpose, people, progress, and prosperity.Purpose: driving more inclusive, equitable outcomes – and positive impactPeople: leading with compassion, creativity, and connectionProgress: creating better solutions that raise the bar for everyoneProsperity: building systems where business, society, and nature can thriveIn this episode he explains why aligning business with values is not just ethical but a commercial imperative. He brings the data to dispel the myth that profit and purpose are in conflict. And explores how organizations can “learn, unlearn, and relearn,” embracing curiosity, listening more deeply to customers and employees, and focusing on progress over perfection.  Samuel is co-founder and co-CEO of New York-based Purpose Hive. He has led brand and business growth at companies including Braun, Campbell's, Grainger, Safeway, Proctor & Gamble, and Sustainable Brands. This podcast is part of an ongoing series of interviews with executives.
