field studies, technology research, cultural history, trend data, global interviews and even science fiction to provide
a pragmatic roadmap of the future. As an applied futurist Johnson has worked with governments, militaries, trade
organizations, start-ups and multinational corporations to not only help envision their future but specify the steps
needed to get there. Johnson is currently the futurist in residence at Arizona State University's Center for Science
and the Imagination and a professor in the School for the Future of Innovation in Society.
Jeff is one of the leading innovators in understanding consumer behavior and applying this knowledge to help
organizations drive the changes necessary to create more loyal and engaged customers and employees. Throughout
his career Jeff has worked in the Financial Service Industry as a tireless advocate for improving the banking experience
for consumers. He has developed and led multiple collaborative groups across all size financial institutions aimed at
radically changing the way Financial Institutions deliver experiences to their customers.
In his current role with SunTrust Bank, Jeff is SVP, Director of Client Insights and Experience, Jeff applies emerging customer experience disciplines combined
with advanced behaviors analytics to uncover strategies for improving customer relationship and driving revenue at SunTrust. Armed with these new insights,
