Heath Slawner

Heath is a passionate speaker whose gift lies in connecting people and ideas with creative energy. He captivates audiences around the world and is at ease in unproven waters. With his work at the intersection of leadership, influence and trust, Heath vividly shares insights and perspectives that help others take performance to the next level.

Ever optimistic, Heath believes that trust and purpose are at the center of it all. When we’re clear about why we’re here, where we’re going, who we serve and how we’re getting there, people start to feel valued and fulfilled. Consequently, we will choose to do our best work and collectively bring bold visions to reality.

Driven by the belief that people thrive when they are united by a shared sense of purpose, Heath joined the Start With Why team in 2015 and continues to work with organizations to drive change, enhance leadership, and strengthen workplace culture.

Heath’s presentation was phenomenal. He kept everyone engaged and involved, attentive and participating all the way through. And many had been there for at least four days. It was fabulous! I sure looked very good having selected you as one (if not the best) of keynote speakers at our event – at the beginning of my new career with this group, this was a boost I could certainly use!

Heath’s presentation went great. His message aligned perfectly to what we were trying to convey to our audience and he kept their attention during the hour right before lunch. That’s not an easy thing to do! I was truly impressed with his dedication to getting to know our firm and our business model. He did his homework and even reached out to a few of our branch offices in Canada and the US.
