Claude, words can’t express how amazing I think you are. People loved your lecture and you exude such love and kindness. We all left wondering how Vayner got so lucky. You are truly the best. The first summit seemed to be a hit. In the 48 hours following the meeting, we already have almost 2/3 of the total of this year pre-registered. It’s certainly an exciting ride and YOU played a huge role. Everybody begged me to ask you come back and speak to the team members next year.

Claude Silver

Motivational expert on diversity, equity, inclusion & the future of work

Claude Silver was originally taken on at VaynerMedia as Senior Vice President, tasked with running and maintaining the Unilever social media accounts. She spent several years traveling between different offices where she'd meet and mentor employees.

It was these experiences of mentorship that Claude realized she no longer wished to focus on the marketing side of things and instead would prefer to focus on the staff at the core of the business. Claude decided to leave the company so she could pursue this, but the CEO was quick to give her a call and offer her the new position of Chief Heart Officer. Claude doesn't want to be the hero of the story, instead she wants to guide others to be their own hero's.

Claude is passionate about creating environments that enable people to thrive and be themselves, shown through her leadership roles with JWT London, Organic, and SAYMedia. Claude aims to facilitate change and growth within teams and the individuals that comprise them, focusing on the importance of diversity, inclusion and equity within work teams and empowering female entrepreneurs and executives. Claude has a great track record of hiring the best talent and leading teams of people on an international scale. By guiding her colleagues, Claude shows them how to identify any issues and then rectify them so that roadblocks to success can be removed.
