Connection is not a soft skill

I help leaders fall back in love with their lives so they can build what actually matters.

I'm Whitney Putnam — speaker, author, and VP of Marketing at the Global Leadership Network, home of the Global Leadership Summit.

I've spent years rebuilding my life after loss, financial devastation, and the slow work of finding my way back to myself. I know what it costs when connection breaks down. And I know what becomes possible when it's rebuilt.

My memoir Clip Clack is coming in 2027.

Connection is the foundation of everything worth building.

 

Discover where your connection is breaking down.

Nine questions. Three minutes. A clear picture of where to start.

Based on Gallup's 2026 research — only 20% of employees worldwide are engaged at work. Disconnection starts at the top. This assessment helps you find out where.

The assessment is launching soon — email me at hello@whitneyputnam.com and I'll send it directly to you.
