About
Scott Deming is an international keynote speaker, author, and business consultant specializing in customer service and customer experience.

It is shaped by people’s experiences with the organization and the people behind it. Drawing on decades of real world business ownership and consulting experience, Scott shows organizations how to move customers beyond satisfaction and create the kind of emotional connection that builds loyalty, drives referrals and separates a brand from its competition. His approach goes well beyond traditional customer service. Scott connects the customer experience to the culture behind it, showing how leadership, employee engagement, communication and consistency ultimately determine what the customer experiences. Known for his high-energy, compelling stories and practical business insights, Scott has worked with organizations of every size, from independently owned businesses to multinational corporations, across manufacturing, healthcare, financial services, technology, retail, agriculture, automotive, and many other industries. Scott’s message is straightforward: Customer service is the process. Customer experience is the emotion . And the experience you create may be the one competitive advantage your competition cannot copy. If you are looking for a speaker who will do more than simply motivate your audience, Scott delivers a message that challenges how people think about customers, employees, and the experiences they create every day. Audiences leave energized, but more imp ortantly, they leave with a clear understanding of what must change and how to make it happen. -

Scott Deming is a seasoned communications and marketing professional with over thirty years of corporate experience and over twenty years as owner/operator of a national advertising and marketing firm. Now, he transcends the traditional “Brand Building” concept to a unique and unexpected level with the highly popular “Creating the Ultimate Customer Experience” presentation.
POWERED BY PURPOSE: A Guide to Effective Leadership and Passionate Collaboration
All great, sustainable organizations have a culture of passion, meaning and purpose. This doesn’t mean you need to be working for a company trying to find a cure for cancer. It doesn’t matter what you sell, as long as the culture is purpose driven. Culture determines the success or failure of an organization, and it all begins and ends with leadership and collaboration.
In this dynamic leadership and teamwork driven program, based on Scott Deming’s second book – “Powered by Purpose” he demonstrates how differing points of view and healthy debate should be encouraged, as long as everyone agrees on the mission, purpose and objective. Through clear communication, sharing of ideas and checking the egos at the door, a culture of inspiration and innovation takes shape and the end result is an unprecedented customer experience.
Case studies will be discussed, corporate heroes will be highlighted and proof will be shown that companies without a purpose driven and value oriented culture cannot survive in a world where people are seeking meaningful interactions and trusting relationships.
During his presentation, Scott will help you:
Define your Purpose
Understand the difference between functional purpose and mission purpose
Discover how “Purpose” leads to effective leadership, innovation, teamwork and passionate, sustainable cultures
Develop a communication process that knocks down barriers, eliminates assumptions and creates a smooth flow of information
Create a consistent customer experience that leads to customer loyalty
PERCEPTUAL REALITY
You know what you do and what you sell, but does everyone in your organization have the same understanding? You think your employees and colleagues understand what you mean and where you’re coming from – Do They? More important, do your customers truly understand what you do and how you do it? Believe it or not, what you think you sell and what your customers hope you sell are two different things. How well you think you’re doing and how well your customers think you’re doing are always two very different things. You perceive your business from a business person’s perspective. Your customers do not. They perceive your business as something they hope you can provide to make their life better.
In Scott Deming’s Keynote Address titled “Perceptual Reality” you’ll discover how to see your business through your customer’s eyes and how to provide the level of service they crave – not what you think they want. Don’t miss this captivating, thought-provoking and transformative presentation on “Perceptual Reality!”
