ABOUT NADER:  Nader Safinya, known as The Culture Branding Guy, helps companies become disruptive people-first brands through his agency Blackribbit, where he designs customer and employer brands simultaneously to create organizations that put quality of life above just selling products and services.  Drawing from his international background and expertise in design and marketing, Nader's mission is to change society's relationship with the workplace by bringing cool jobs to cool people - because as he says, there are far more cool people than cool jobs.
