"We couldn't be more thrilled," says Bill Lee, who produces the Summit. "Jeb is a pioneer in developing the modern position of Chief Customer Officer."

Dasteel, along with keynoter Don Peppers, who launched the entire CRM (customer relationship management) revolution in the 1990s, are part of Lee's larger plan for this Summit.

"Senior executives increasingly understand the importance of customer engagement and customer advocacy to growing the business. But they need for the people who run these programs to speak their language and understand their strategic perspectives. Jeb, Don and myself will provide that language and perspective in ways that no other event can match," said Lee, the leading expert in the field of customer engagement.

Dasteel and Lee will engage in a fireside chat on topics such as:

• The importance of customer advocates and influencers in attracting today's empowered buyer
• The future of this field
• How to position these programs strategically in your firm
• How to communicate their importance to your senior management and measure their effectiveness

"An especially important issue is keeping these programs innovative, especially with today's increasingly self-empowered buyer. Jeb and I will let the conversation go where it will," says Lee. "And there will be plenty of time for audience interaction with Jeb."

In addition to top thought leaders in the field, the Summit will feature breakout sessions by leading practitioners in customer advocacy and engagement from firms like IBM, Citrix, Salesforce.com and several others.

"We'll also offer a selection of deeper dive workshops from top subject-matter experts in the field," says Lee.
