I am Heather Gates,human-centered strategy partner
As a strategy partner and facilitator, I create supported space to help health and human-system leaders ignite individual and collective possibility. I am relentlessly focused on helping build intentional paths forward — grounded in the facts & feels of the human experience. With over twenty years of experience, and a deep passion for people and process, I thrive in the complexity of human systems and across multiple levels of influence.
Let’s connect to see how I can help you find a path forward — through direct support or in connection with a community of leaders like you.
We all thrive when you do.
Is it time to pause ANDget your what & how in order?
Hi game-changer! I’m grateful you are here. I suspect you believe deeply that we can do better—for, and with, each other. You dedicate your time and career to this reality. The drive for improvement pulses in your heart and stands strong in your bones.
You know that leading improvement efforts in human systems requires more than good intentions. It calls for thoughtful engagement, a clear compass & intention, deep connection, collective clarity, and aligned action. Because you know that it’s not just what we do, but how we do it, that matters when all the system parts are people..
You understand that all of it is deeply human and complex. And you are human too.
