Save the World and Make a Fortune with Leadership Expert Will Marre

Innovative leadership expert, Will Mare, inspires the next generation of leaders to make money by solving today’s toughest social challenges.

Charleston, SC, April 16, 2014 --(PR.com)-- “Will Marre presents a new model of disruptive leadership. It's a completely fresh viewpoint in a field that hasn’t said anything new in 20 years," said professor David Wyman who heads the center for business entrepreneurship for the College of Charleston.

Marre presented a series of workshops and lectures to students, professors and community leaders at the College of Charleston prior to his keynote address, which opened DIG SOUTH. DIG SOUTH is a new Digital festival-conference that brings together thousands of young technologists and entrepreneurs to Charleston South Carolina, which is undergoing a transformational boom in high-technology business formation.

Marre's presentation titled “How to Start with Nothing, Save the World and Make a Fortune” featured his personal experience advising CEO Jeff Jordan, who founded his company as a 17-year-old high school student. Now 30, Jordan has recently won a $150 million contract from the FDA to help high-risk teens stop smoking. Jordan's team of psychologists and young social media mavens have succeeded by developing a series of unconventional strategies proven to actually stop risky behavior of youth who have low value for their personal health.

Marre encouraged the audience to solve the nontrivial problems of our time. He said, "If you want to make money, buy a franchise. If you want to matter, start a new business with a 21st-century value proposition."

As the confounding entrepreneur who helped make "The Seven Habits of Highly Effective People" the best-selling leadership book of all time, Will Marre has spent decades consulting and coaching leaders to actually apply the principles of inspiring leadership to spur positive innovation and growth. Stanfield Gray, founder of DIG South said, "Marre set the perfect tone to inspire innovation."
