Brian Crimmins Brian Crimmins is a global leader in social impact, the creator of ONE HUNDRED (the world’s first coalition of marketing agencies united for sustainable change), a popular public speaker on fundraising and philanthropy and Chief Executive Officer of Changing Our World, a leading philanthropy and management consulting firm whose team of impact consultants effects transformative change on the global stage. Brian has been invited to speak around the world on topics touching corporate social responsibility, purpose and social impact. His 2020 talk at Ford Motor Company, where he addressed their leaders and executives, emphasized his focus not just on what organizations can and should be doing in the CSR space, but on how leaders might organize their inner and personal lives to expand the edges of their own potential. He has delivered keynotes and talks at Goldman Sachs’ Philanthropy Forum, Boston College, the University of Notre Dame, the Porter Novelli Purpose Summit and to the executive leadership of many national and international organizations committed to the betterment of humanity. As Global Managing Partner of ONE HUNDRED, Brian works with parent company, Omnicom, and sister agencies to bring passionate leadership and advocacy to client engagements. He developed a client service model that deploys integrated teams, with unmatched depth of knowledge and experience culled from across Omnicom, to create meaningful global impact through the combined power of communications and philanthropy. With over 20 years’ experience, Brian has helped organizations and corporations turn philanthropic ideas into actionable purpose, driving tangible results with policies, practices and platforms that bring about positive change. Most recently, in response to the uncertainty in the purpose and nonprofit spaces brought on by the COVID-19 pandemic, Brian launched and is host of the popular virtual conference series, Forging Forward, which hosts global leaders from organizations such as Unilever, Comic Relief, Memorial Sloan Kettering, Operation Smile, USAA, TD Ameritrade, United Nations Global Compact, the Environmental Defense Fund, World Food Program USA, Interbrand and General Motors, to name just a few. The focus is on frank conversations around the impact of the pandemic across corporate social responsibility, philanthropy, healthcare and economics—and how the sector might respond. Brian also serves as Omnicom’s de facto purpose expert, helping it to understand the community impact of more than 200 agencies across its network and advancing its commitment to the SDGs. His expertise is tapped in service to some of the world’s largest and most influential corporations as they define their core reason for being and translate theory into action. Brian lives on Long Island with his wife and their four children, though the line between his personal and professional life is often blurred as the values that drive him at home are the same core values that form the foundation of his approach to providing decision-making support to clients. The world of philanthropy changes quickly – and Brian is forever a student of the industry – but what is constant is his deep commitment to service and to shaping a more just and compassionate society. Brian is a frequent contributor to publications covering the sector and holds a Bachelor of Science from St. John’s University and an MBA in Marketing Management from St. John’s Tobin School of Business. He is a graduate of the Omnicom Advanced Management Program, a partnership between Harvard Business School and Babson College.
