DEREK WALKER

Chief Instigator

brown & browner advertising

Don’t you just hate these bios that tell you how sparkly, amazing the person is?
So do I. Yeah, I’m breaking the 4th wall by talking to you, but that’s what I do
- advertising. I break through the clutter with a message that says something
human to get and hold your attention. (Got you! You’re still reading) After a
lifetime of being paid to promote other people, their company, product or
service, I’ve grown to dislike talking about myself. Who am I kidding, I never
liked talking about me. I’m a creative, who has been blessed to work in
advertising for nearly 30 years. I’ve worked at great shops, and I’ve worked at
bad shops. I’ve done work that I am so proud of, and then I have done work that
years of therapy is just now helping me recover from. I’m a creative. I love
starting stuff. I’m an instigator.

Eric Sapp serves as President of the B-Corp, Public Democracy. As an
entrepreneur, faith leader, and political advisor, Eric has spent his career
supporting communities all over the world in their efforts to promote the common
good. These partnerships increasingly pointed him toward the importance of
values-based data and empathy-driven digital marketing, which are at the core of
Public Democracy. As attention metrics, demography, and purchase histories were
increasingly shaping the world’s data—teaching algorithms that humans are best
understood by how we were born, what we’d watch, and what we would buy—Eric led
a team that developed one of the largest values-based response databases in the
nation. Public Democracy then leveraged that psychometric data to develop
empathy-driven digital marketing tools that have led to breakthroughs in
combating trafficking, mobilizing civic engagement, providing services to
severely injured veterans, and are now being turned toward identifying and
providing interventions to people at the earliest stages of opioid addiction.
