match all the records with the highest next_contact in activities.

I think you want something more like:

A.next_contact = (select (max(A.next_contact)) from Activities as A2 WHERE
A2.person_id=A.person_id)

Or, for that matter, since next_contact is all that you're drawing from
activities, you can also just put it in the select:

select (P.person_id, P.lname, P.fname, P.direct_phone, O.org_name,
(select max(A.next_contact) from Activities as A WHERE
p.person_id=A.person_id)
FROM ...
