Don't miss this rare opportunity to meet Chip Conley is the founder and
CEO of Joie de Vivre Hospitality, California's largest boutique hotel
company now celebrating its 20th anniversary.
Who is Chip Conley?

Real Estate Entrepreneur

Starting out with virtually no industry experience, Chip opened his first
hotel, The Phoenix, in San Francisco's edgy Tenderloin district on a wing
and a prayer. The company now consists of over 40 award-winning hotels,
restaurants and spas across the state. Each unique property is designed to
produce what Chip calls "identity refreshment" for his guests. The company
gleans inspiration for each hotel from popular magazines such as Rolling
Stone (The Phoenix), The New Yorker (Hotel Rex), Real Simple "meets" Dwell
(Vitale), Wired (Avante) and others. Chip and his company's time-tested
techniques have been featured in Business 2.0, TIME, Fast Company,
Fortune, People and other leading publications-so many magazines, so many
new hotel possibilities!

Speaker & Author

A popular speaker and innovative leader, Chip is regularly consulted by
corporate, civic and academic institutions for his opinions, guidance and
wisdom on building and maintaining a successful and transformative
enterprise-involving areas such as organizational leadership, creative
business development, corporate social responsibility and spirit in
business. In his new book, PEAK: How Great Companies Get Their Mojo From
Maslow, Chip shares his unique prescription for success based on the
iconic Hierarchy of Needs. His new theory illustrates how Employees,
Customers and Investors are ultimately motivated by peak experiences-and
he demonstrates how to create these for each using real-world examples
from his own company and others.

Committed Philanthropist

Chip has been honored with the top hospitality industry awards and is
recognized as a committed and creative philanthropist. He is the founder
of San Francisco's Annual Celebrity Pool Toss, which has raised over 3
million dollars for inner city youth programs now thriving in the troubled
neighborhood where he launched his first hotel. He is a member of the
Global Business Network, and Young Presidents Organization and received
his BA and MBA from Stanford University.
