p.s. In case you require a reference (beyond the testimonials provided in the link at the bottom of the page): As we were wrapping up a project last week, the CEO and COO of Rockford Package Supply both offered to be a reference. So, here you go! I have not called them in advance, and urge you to call them directly. The President/CEO/Owner is Howard Paulson, and the COO is Erich Baum. Their main number is 616-444-7225. They are great people—enjoy the conversation if you decide to call.

HEIDI FRYE
Speaker, Author, Podcaster, and Executive Coach
My name is Heidi Frye. I am an executive coach, author, speaker, podcaster, and leadership development expert with a knack for transforming leaders. I have a rich corporate background in high-stakes sales at industry giants like Xerox, Boston Scientific Corporation, and EMC. This unique perspective and skillset, combined with my leadership development business, UPwords Inc., helps individuals, teams, and groups grow, plug into their core, and transform how they lead.
I’ve created this page to give you a snapshot of who I am, the work I do/have done, and how I can help you/your team/your business. If you would like to dig deeper, follow the many links I’ve provided, peruse the website on your own, or schedule a conversation—I’d love to connect with you!
How I can help
Organizational people problems are real—I help organizations grow by addressing those people issues. Maybe you’ve seen a few symptoms in your organization? Turnover, lack of engagement, trust issues, retention, “adult tantrums”, analysis paralysis, Imposter Syndrome/confidence issues, failure to hold people accountable, failure to delegate, conflict, lack of vision, unhealthy communication, one-way communication…NO communication(!), etc.
What I know to be true
“I believe the best leaders lead from their core. Authentically themselves, these leaders see the light in others, inspiring all to be the best versions of themselves—developing, transforming, and creating high-functioning leaders/teams, driving lasting change, and stimulating an engaging, high-performance culture—while leading with confidence and purpose.”
What sets my work apart—Executive Coaching, Speaking, Team/Leadership Development:
Real-World Experience: Drawing on my extensive background in corporate sales, training, and leadership, I can relate… plus, I have great stories!
Engaging and Inspirational: My speaking style is dynamic and engaging. I take complex concepts and make them relatable, understandable, and thought-provoking. Audiences leave enlightened and empowered.
Power Source: My book, The Light Switch, is not about “turning on your power”. Your power is already on--I want to help you switch it from external power to internal power, where true power resides.
Coaching/Transformation Perspective: Leveraging my 20 years of coaching experience, I see the root cause quickly, and apply various development tools and tactics to help leaders shift and transform.
Programs & Workshops: Two decades successfully designing and executing, engaging high-energy high-impact programs and workshops, to develop leaders and grow business. Workshops are customized and designed to meet people development and business goals. Additionally, team development programs may include outings to stimulate a particular lesson while focused on team building.
“I started working with Heidi about 18 months into my tenure as CEO, and at first it felt like a bit of an indulgence but I soon realized it was essential to my growth as a leader. In the early days, she put a variety of concepts and tools in my path and they are things I go back to again and again. Now I use the time to problem solve, “unpack” my current challenges, and find a way to move forward on complex situations.”
“A leader’s core muscles are strengthened from the inside out, where true power resides.”
