About the Host
You may not know the name Jackie Cooper, but her behind-the-scenes influence as a brand and celebrity strategist has delivered a myriad of famous campaigns and headline-making moments. Her philosophy to meet everyone once has paid off, building an extensive network of fascinating people – from business leaders to talent in music, film and culture writ large.
Jackie got her start in business as a young entrepreneur and built her own agency from the ground up. In 2014, she sold it to Edelman, where she now serves as Chief Brand Officer overseeing a global portfolio of over 1000 brands. In 2018, Jackie became the first woman to be inducted into PRWeek's Hall of Fame.
Now she’s coming center stage with her rolodex of likeminded power players to share the mic and some intimate truths from their past, present and future. And while the truth can be hard to hear, it goes down easier with a touch of empathy and a story or two.
