20 minutes, online, free. You’ll leave knowing your next step.

Cases stay anonymous, and nothing you share leaves the conversation.

You get an independent peer view, outside your organization’s politics.

Sound familiar?

The questions HR professionals bring to me most.

  • “I’m the only HR person and I need a thinking partner.”
  • “I’m building a new program or strategy. Can I think it through with someone?”
  • “I’m preparing for a pay or talent review and want a second set of eyes.”
  • “How do I push back on a leader without damaging the relationship?”
  • “How do I earn a stronger seat at the table with my leaders?”
  • “I’m up for a bigger role. How do I position myself and negotiate my own package?”

What changes

Someone in your corner, for a change.

Never decide alone

A trusted peer for the calls you can’t make in a vacuum, and can’t talk through inside your company.

Earn your seat at the table

Your leaders see you as a strategic partner, not the person who enforces policy.

Grow your own career too

Not just everyone else’s. You get clarity on your next step and how to get there.

Client story

HR director · Coaching

She stopped waiting for permission, and started leading.

An HR director was juggling competing priorities and tight deadlines, with a leader and internal clients who didn’t value her time. She was doing good work, but waiting for her boss’s go-ahead before moving things forward.

We worked on stepping fully into her role: setting the agenda, booking meetings directly with stakeholders and taking charge of her projects, safely, and exactly as her boss expected her to. Her confidence and her influence grew quickly.

At the next annual promotion round, she was a top contender for senior director, and she got the role.

A real client, shared with details changed to protect their privacy.

Why work with me

Heidi Klotz smiling, in a navy blazer

I have done your job.

A peer who has been there

I have worked in HR up to the vice president level, where I designed and led pay, benefits and retirement programs for about 20,000 employees. I know the pressure from leaders, employees and everyone in between.

Independent and confidential

I sit outside your organization, so you can speak freely. Cases stay anonymous.

Coach and advisor in one

When you need an answer, I’ll give you my view. When the answer is yours to find, I’ll coach you to it.

From an HR professional

“Working with Heidi was a pivotal experience in my career. She gave me the tools I needed to succeed, encouraged me to take initiative, and fostered an environment where learning and growth were core values. Her trust and support helped me grow both professionally and personally.”
Kailey-Anne White, CRHA, Senior Human Resources Manager, Ardene

Common questions

Can I bring a real case?
Yes. We talk it through without names or identifying details, so the case stays anonymous.
Can we meet outside work hours?
Yes. I offer early-morning and evening calls, so you can talk freely, away from the office.
Can my employer pay for this?
Often, yes. In Quebec, leadership coaching counts toward the 1% training law, which applies to employers with a payroll of more than $2 million. Many benefit plans also include a wellness or personal spending account that can cover coaching. I provide the invoice and record of hours you need.
How does the sounding board work?
You book one 60-minute call each month and send quick questions by email in between. After the first 3 months, it continues month to month, and you can cancel with 30 days’ notice.
How do I pay?
After we agree on what fits, I send you an invoice. Packages are paid before your first session, and the sounding board monthly, by credit card or Interac e-Transfer.
Do you give legal advice?
No. When a case carries legal risk, I’ll say so and can refer you to a trusted employment lawyer.

Take care of the person who takes care of everyone else.

Tell me what’s on your plate. In 20 minutes, you’ll leave knowing your next step, whether or not we work together. And if your first session isn’t worth it, you don’t pay.
