About Anthony

As Chief Strategy Officer at Social Driver, I’m passionate about helping organizations cut through the noise with people-centered digital strategies. I co-founded our firm to reimagine how companies and causes connect with people—and I’m proud that our clients, from Amazon to the American Diabetes Association, trust us to deliver creative solutions that make them more relevant in a fast-changing world. I also love bringing people together for meaningful conversations about the future. As Chairman of the National Digital Roundtable, I’ve hosted discussions everywhere from the West Wing of The White House to LinkedIn’s HQ. And as host of Chief Influencer, a podcast produced in partnership with The George Washington University, I spotlight leaders who know how to break through and make an impact. Here’s my formal bio, in case you need it: Anthony Shop is the Co-Founder and Chief Strategy Officer of Social Driver, a leading digital services firm that helps companies and nonprofits develop people-centered strategies across branding, social media, websites, content, and advertising.
