About Megan Himan
Speaker. Writer. Strategist. Solution Architect.
After ten years consulting on the Salesforce platform, Megan cares deeply about teaching technical teams the people and strategy skills that fuel organizational change. She has six Salesforce certifications (Admin, Advanced Admin, Sales Cloud Consultant, Service Cloud Consultant, Community Cloud Consultant, Nonprofit Cloud Consultant), but is most proud of walking 200 km on the Camino de Santiago (last year) and playing for the US National Rugby Team (many years ago). She's a four-time Salesforce MVP (named in 2017, 2018, 2019, 2020). After coaching dozens of friends and acquaintances on how to start their own profitable consulting practices, Megan packaged this knowledge into a practical and actionable course so that more women and underrepresented folks in tech can find the same financial and personal freedom that she has. Megan loves presenting to audiences big and small using storytelling, most recently on the stage at Dreamforce. Megan is founder & principal of BrightStep Partners, where her team helps organizations transform the way they work using the Salesforce Platform.
Megan uses the power of business storytelling to create compelling presentations, and is available to speak at your user group virtually, and in-person at meetings and conferences depending on availability. She finds equal joy in speaking at major events (including a keynote with 7,000 people at Dreamforce) and user group meetings (virtual talk to user group in Amsterdam).
