Through this very spirited and personal 10 minute talk, Heather is asking you to re-think a relationship many look at as taboo. While the #metoo movement nailed the harassment women have endured in the workplace by men, they left out the single most destructive villain a woman will ever face at work, another woman. Join Heather to learn the 5 steps you can take to fire your villain and set yourself up to take off. This is an idea worth spreading. Please like, comment and share.

I Spent 20 Years Being Loyal to Companies. Here's the $2M Mistake That Taught Me to Be Loyal to Myself Instead

For two decades, I believed loyalty to others meant everything. 😳

Stay with one company.
Build your reputation there.
Your dedication will be rewarded.

I turned down:
• A startup opportunity (now worth $100M)
• Multiple speaking circuit invitations 
• Book deals and business shows 

All because "loyalty" meant staying head down at the company I was in.

Then I got fired. 💔

Not for performance.
Not for results.
Instead because the CEO I had worked for became ill and replaced himself with someone that didn't like me. 

That loyalty? It cost me $2M in lost opportunities.

But losing that job taught me what real loyalty looks like:

✨ Loyalty to YOUR growth, not their org chart
✨ Loyalty to YOUR network, not their company 
✨ Loyalty to YOUR brand, not theirs

Companies restructure. Industries shift. Bosses leave.

You know what stays with you?

Your skills.
Your relationships.
Your personal brand.
Your track record.

Now I'm:
• 2X bestselling author
• Top 50 keynote speaker 
• Board Member and Podcast Host
• Making 2X what I made being "loyal"

My network? They changed my life. 🙌

Stop trading your potential for their promises.
Stop being loyal to everyone except yourself.

Your career isn't their asset.
It's YOUR empire.

Build accordingly. 🚀

What opportunity did you miss because you were being "loyal"? 👇🏻

Connected Leadership  

I truly believe that communication and connection is the foundation of everything. When asked how I explain what I do to my then 10 year old I answered, "I help people work better together." 

Leadership, teamwork, conflict resolution and everything else that leads to our professional success is founded in our ability to communicate. But moreover, our ability to CONNECT.

For organizations I enable them engage, grow, and retain their greatest asset - their people. I help individuals communicate with clarity, confidence, and connection. The last one is as important as the rest since real relationships lead to real results. That is the theory behind my books The Connector's Advantage: 7 Mindsets to Grow Your Influence and Impact and The 11 Laws Of Likability: Relationship Networking…Because People Do Business With People They Like.

In 2025, I will launch a self-paced version of The Connected Leader Course! Finally, I can serve the individual who needs coaching and community to elevate in their impact. Learn more at --> https://www.connectedleaderclub.com/.

I will still continue to work on creating Connected Leaders and Connected Cultures and spread the message of my book, The Connector’s Advantage. I will continue to run the Connect program for the Marshall Goldsmith 100 Coaches. Perhaps I will finally do a Tedx this year.

Through Executive Essentials (a certified WBE) I work with corporate HR and L&D teams to develop custom solutions.
