Michelle Heck is a leadership expert, entrepreneur and author of the upcoming book Lead.Fluencer – What Leaders Can Learn from Influencers. At just 29, she has already built a track record of 9 years in leadership – starting in a male-dominated industry at a time when she had no role models, but a clear sense of identity.
As CEO of a family-run company and founder, she lives in both worlds: the pressure of performance and the inner tension many leaders feel but rarely talk about.
Michelle doesn’t deliver feel-good leadership shows.
She delivers friction. Focus. Questions that make you uncomfortable – and inspired.
Her mission: to help leaders reclaim their voice in a world where AI is getting louder, and human presence is becoming the only real differentiator.
📚 Her book Lead.Fluencer launches on April 29, 2025 – a manifesto for real, modern, identity-driven leadership.
Whether speaking to 50 or 500 people – Michelle brings clarity, courage, and a voice that stays with you long after the lights go down.

Leadership has never been simple – but it’s never been this complex either.
In a world shaped by AI, constant transformation and increasing demands, leaders are being pushed into a new kind of responsibility:
Not just to act, decide or perform – but to truly know who they are.
I don't speak about leadership that looks good.
I speak about the kind that keeps you up at night – and why that’s exactly where your biggest growth lies.
Between values, visibility, and the rise of intelligent systems, there’s a new kind of leadership emerging: one that is grounded, human, and unmistakably real.
These are the topics I bring to the stage: raw, relevant and radically honest.
How to stay human and effective when systems get smarter
Why AI won’t replace you – but lack of integrity might
Between overwhelm and innovation: your role as a compass in change
You can't lead others if you can't lead yourself – the power of inner clarity
From pleasing to leading: how to develop a leadership identity with presence
Saying no without guilt – how boundaries create real authority
Why outdated leadership styles are breaking down – and what trust really needs
What influencers do better than most executives – and how you can use it
The Leadfluencer approach: where identity, impact and presence collide
