HEART Leadership: Leading with Humanity, Empathy, and Purpose
Sara Valentine is a dynamic speaker and HR executive who inspires leaders to bring humanity back into leadership. Through her signature HEART Leadership framework, she helps organizations and individuals transform the way they lead by focusing on what truly matters — people.
With nearly two decades of experience in human resources, Sara blends professional insight with personal testimony to show that leadership is not about perfection or position—it’s about presence, purpose, and compassion.
Her HEART framework — Hear, Empathize, Appreciate, Respond, and Thank — challenges audiences to lead with authenticity, create cultures of trust, and prioritize connection over control.
Sara’s story is one of resilience and redemption—rising from personal hardship to become a respected voice in leadership, culture, and organizational transformation. Her message reminds us that when leaders lead with HEART, they don’t just change workplaces—they change lives.
