Kristen Hadeed believes that authentic, human leadership can change the world. At 19, with hardly any leadership experience, she started a cleaning business called Student Maid. Before she graduated, her company received a contract to clean hundreds of apartments—and it changed her path forever. Over the next 14 years, Kristen learned a lot by screwing up. But most importantly, she learned how to lead from her heart. Doing so helped her take Student Maid from a small cleaning company to a business known on a global scale for its culture of belonging, its focus on people, and its purpose of building leaders. Today, she spends her time helping leaders, teams, and organizations around the world ignite the kind of human leadership that builds trust, belonging, and wildly engaged cultures. Her work has been featured in news outlets including PBS, FOX, Inc., NBC, TIME, and Forbes. Her first book, Permission To Screw Up, has sold more than 50,000 copies worldwide.
