Last Monday in New York City, VaynerSpeakers teamed up with Offsite to bring together a room full of Chief People Officers and HR leaders for an intimate evening with our very own Claude Silver—VaynerX's Chief Heart Officer and one of the most sought-after voices in leadership.
Claude is the first-ever Chief Heart Officer in corporate America, a bestselling author, and the person responsible for making sure VaynerX's employees feel seen, heard, and empowered to do their best work. Claude just launched her new book, Be Yourself at Work (already a USA Today bestseller, by the way), and the room was buzzing with leaders eager to hear how she's redefining what leadership looks like for the future.
Her keynotes aren't your typical corporate fare. Here's what she brings to the table:
Be Yourself at Work HEART isn't a buzzword—it's a blueprint. Claude breaks down her five-step framework to build trust, reach people where they are, and dismantle toxicity. Because great culture doesn't come from policy manuals—it comes from leaders who show up with authenticity and create environments where people feel safe bringing their whole selves to work.
The ROI of Empathic Leadership Compassion is the new currency. Claude shares real stories and actionable insights from VaynerMedia and beyond, proving that when you lead with genuine care and connection, you don't sacrifice performance—you unlock it. Her approach shows how creating space for honest dialogue and human connection translates directly into team alignment and business results.
404: Old Leadership Book Not Found. The workplace has changed—so should leadership. Claude offers a fresh, human-centered approach to navigating uncertainty by leading with authenticity, empathy, and heart. She challenges leaders to move beyond surface-level team building and create the kind of meaningful in-person experiences where real trust gets built—the foundation every high-performing organization needs.
Huge thanks to the team at Offsite for co-hosting and creating the kind of environment where honest conversations about leadership can happen.
