Charles Vogl Biography

Charles Vogl is an award-winning author, executive adviser, and keynote speaker whose work focuses on leadership, community building, and organizational resilience. He is the author of three books, including the international bestseller "The Art of Community." Drawing on spiritual traditions and personal experience, "The Art of Community" outlines seven principles for growing enduring, effective, and connected communities. His second book, "Storytelling for Leadership," leverages his background as a PBS documentary filmmaker to provide guidance for leaders on sharing authentic stories and inspiring emotional resonance. His third book, "Building Brand Communities," co-authored with Carrie Melissa Jones, won an Axiom Business Book Gold Medal and addresses organizational leaders seeking to connect people in ways that serve both members and broader organizational goals.

Vogl's career spans multiple sectors, beginning with volunteer work in a homeless shelter, human rights work in Sub-Saharan Africa as a Peace Corps Volunteer, and building teams to create high-impact media as a New York documentary filmmaker. His PBS film work received several international awards, including the Amnesty International Movies that Matter Award. As a producer and writer, he is known for films including "New Year Baby" and "William Kunstler: Disturbing the Universe." These experiences provided Vogl with a practical understanding of how people unite around shared values and purpose, which informs his work with global organizations.

Vogl has worked with Google in several capacities, including as a thought leader for the Google School for Leaders and as a founding member of the Google Vitality Lab, which addresses challenges in health and well-being. His expertise is used to advise and develop leadership programs within organizations such as Airbnb, LinkedIn, Twitch, Amazon, Target, Meetup.com, Dow Inc., and the US Army. He has presented at venues including LinkedIn, Wayfair, Harvard University, Stanford University, and The Academy of Management, and has guest lectured in several Yale departments.

Vogl's work draws on three thousand years of spiritual traditions to explore how individuals build loyalty, grow resilience, and collaborate on shared values. He holds a Master of Divinity from Yale, where he studied spiritual traditions, ethics, and business as a Jesse Ball duPont Foundation scholar. His first book, "The Art of Community," now in its second edition, received the Nautilus Silver Award for Business and Leadership. Whether advising Fortune 500 companies, speaking at universities, or hosting his podcast "Old Wisdom New Era," Vogl provides insights to help leadership foster connection and belonging within organizations.
