ABOUT THE AUTHOR

An internationally known writer and speaker, Phil Cooke has also written Jolt!: Get the Jump on a World That’s Constantly Changing, about how to make today’s culture of disruption and change work for you, and Branding Faith: Why Some Churches and Non-Profits Impact the Culture and Others Don’t, which forever changed the way nonprofit and religious organizations use the media to tell their story.

Through his media production and branding company (Cooke Pictures in Burbank, California), he’s helped some of the largest nonprofit organizations and leaders in the world tell their stories in a distracted and disrupted culture. Cooke has lectured at many universities, including Yale, University of California at Berkeley, and UCLA, and blogs for the Huffington Post. At his own blog at philcooke.com he writes daily about the intersection of media, culture, and faith.

Cooke lives in Burbank, California, with his wife, Kathleen.
