Speaker

  • Keynote Speaker, Bob Chapman
    Keynote Speaker, Bob Chapman
    Chairman & CEO, Barry-Wehmiller

    Recently named the Tharseō CEO of the Year by the Society for Human Resource Management (SHRM), the #3 CEO in the world in an Inc. article, and a Top 10 Social Capital CEO by International Business Times, Bob Chapman is very intentional about using his platform as a business leader to build a better world.

    Chapman is Chairman and CEO of St. Louis, MO-based Barry-Wehmiller, a $3.3 billion global capital equipment and engineering solutions company with more than 12,000 team members. He became the senior executive of Barry-Wehmiller in 1975 at age 30 when the 90-year-old business had $20 million in revenue, outdated technology and a very weak financial position. Despite the obstacles, Chapman applied a unique blend of strategy and culture over the next 45 plus years in leading Barry-Wehmiller through more than 120 successful acquisitions. Over the past two decades, a series of realizations led him away from traditional management practices to Truly Human Leadership–a people-centric approach where his team members feel valued, cared for and integral to the company’s purpose. At Barry-Wehmiller, they have a unique measure of success: by the way they touch the lives of people. Chapman’s experiences and the transformation he championed were the inspiration behind his 2015 WSJ bestseller Everybody Matters: The Extraordinary Power of Caring for Your People Like Family. In 2016, Harvard Business School released a case study featuring Barry-Wehmiller’s unique approach to business, which is now taught at 70 plus business schools around the world.

All registration fees include access to the “Made in South Florida Showcase” and the Annual Meeting Dinner Program. Each attendee will also receive a copy of the Keynote Speaker’s 2015 Wall Street Journal Bestselling book titled “Everybody Matters: The Extraordinary Power of Caring for Your People Like Family.”
