The Social Capital Revolution Comes to Phoenix!

Sep 15, 2026

Inaugural Summit for People-Centric Leadership convenes 12 visionary business leaders proving people-first leadership drives resilience and prosperity on October 22nd.

PHOENIX - Sept. 14, 2026 - PRLog -- The Dave Alexander Center for Social Capital today announced the inaugural Summit for People-Centric Leadership, a one-day gathering on October 22, 2026 at Avant 121 in Phoenix that will convene 200–300 CEOs, CHROs, founders, and senior leaders from values-driven organizations across Arizona and the U.S., built around a single conviction: taking care of people is taking care of business.

A Collective Force for Change

The Summit will feature 12 trailblazing leaders from diverse industries, each demonstrating that prioritizing people is not at odds with business success — it is the foundation of it. Together, they represent a powerful movement toward reimagining capitalism with human dignity at its core.

Speakers Confirmed!
  • Vince Barsolo proves that purpose is a competitive advantage by employing incarcerated women in real careers.
  • Scott Davison illustrates how trust capital builds resilience and long-term growth.
  • Omani Carson shares his journey from scarcity to abundance, showing how love and trust fuel prosperity.
  • Robert Glazer teaches how clarity on core values transforms leadership.
  • Robin Daniels explores how humans and AI can thrive side by side.
  • Urs König reveals how radical humility creates both strong results and human connection.
  • Amy Lemire shows how confidence-building drives engagement and performance.
  • Dave Alexander explains why great leaders know when to step aside to empower others.
  • Jonathan Keyser demonstrates that service-driven success can outperform ruthless competition.
  • Lyneir Richardson proves capitalism and community can grow together through shared ownership.
  • Frederica Peterson demonstrates how courageous curiosity builds trusted teams.
  • Rick McCartney challenges leaders to respect the most valuable asset customers give: their time.
"We have a connection crisis and a dangerous loneliness epidemic in our country which business leaders can and should address," says Center Founder and President Chris Benguhe. "When they do, they achieve powerful long-term success for their companies."

Why It Matters Now

As American business grapples with disconnection, burnout, and eroding trust, the Summit brings together leaders who have already proven that prioritizing people is not at odds with business success — it is the foundation of it.

"Every speaker on this stage has already proven that people-first leadership and strong financial performance go hand in hand," says Benguhe. "We created this Summit to make that impossible to ignore."
