Vicki Thomas

Chief Purpose Officer – Vicki Thomas won a $100,000 Purpose Prize in 2013 from Encore.org. Nearing retirement, she pursued her purpose using her expertise to help two veteran nonprofits get on the map by placing national and local media stories about veterans needing housing solutions.

Vicki always pursued her passion and purpose in life — she is now helping individuals develop their passion to help them develop their purpose.

Today many individuals are searching for purpose — Vicki and colleague Joyce Cohen are helping others find their purpose by coordinating conferences, workshops, on site corporate sessions and one-to-one meetings.

Vicki helped Purple Heart Homes based in Statesville, NC and Homes for Our Troops based in Taunton, MA gain national critical acclaim by getting stories about veterans they were helping placed in national and local news outlets. She also helped create national programs, and brought in sponsors.

Her working career was with the ABC Television Network in New York City developing information about TV show performance using audience ratings to identify demographic advantages and positioning opportunities over competing broadcast networks and cable entities.

She was also a marketing executive with the leading national trade association for the nations credit unions (Credit Union National Association) to help increase interest and awareness in credit union membership.

Vicki produced, packaged, financed and marketed the Dancin’ Grannies exercise videos and promoted the unknown group to national critical acclaim.

Vicki remains an excellent writer and speaker on the ramifications and opportunities an aging society has on business growth and the business bottom line. She also writes and speaks about what is missing in the work place that has so many employees searching for greater job satisfaction.

Vicki has no desire to ever fully retire or sail off into the sunset. She is living her purpose.
