Phillip Haid Biography

Phillip Haid is the co-founder and CEO of PUBLIC Inc., a North American social-impact agency that works with companies and organizations to integrate social and environmental purpose into business strategy. Haid established PUBLIC to challenge conventional approaches to corporate social responsibility, focusing on the development of purpose-driven brands, strategies, programs, and campaigns that address social and environmental issues. The agency operates as a hybrid of marketing, consultancy, and accelerator, delivering public engagement, fundraising, advocacy, and volunteer engagement initiatives.

Before founding PUBLIC, Haid built a career at the intersection of public policy and social marketing. He served as vice president and managing director of Manifest Communications, a social issues advertising agency, where he oversaw company operations and developed cause-related and corporate citizenship campaigns. Prior to Manifest, Haid led the public sector practice at D-Code, a youth research and marketing firm, and held roles as project manager at the Institute of Governance and project officer at the Canadian Council for International Cooperation. He holds a master's degree in international relations from the Norman Paterson School of International Affairs.

Under Haid's leadership, PUBLIC has executed a range of social impact campaigns, including the "Get HandsOn Challenge," a national volunteerism initiative; the launch of "generationOn," a youth volunteerism organization; "Zero Force," an advocacy and fundraising campaign to address the use of child soldiers; and "Shelter from the Storm," a fundraising campaign to combat violence against women. Haid oversees strategic and creative direction for the agency, working with clients such as Canadian Tire, The Bay, Tiffany & Co., Johnson & Johnson, IBM, Canada Goose, and the Obama Foundation.

In addition to his role at PUBLIC, Haid is a columnist for Fast Company and Financial Post, where he writes on topics including profit with purpose, corporate sustainability, and brand activism. PUBLIC specializes in large-scale social and environmental impact initiatives for Fortune 500 companies, non-profits, and governments, emphasizing the integration of profit and purpose. Haid also serves as chair of the board of Anaphylaxis Canada, reflecting his ongoing commitment to civic engagement and social impact leadership.
