Erin Hatzikostas - Founder & CEO, b Authentic Inc.

Erin Hatzikostas is a former corporate CEO who, quite literally, wrote the business case on authentic leadership. Erin is an internationally recognized expert on authenticity in the workplace. She's the CEO & Founder of b Authentic inc, a Bestselling Author, TEDx & Keynote Speaker. 

Erin spent her career “first half” working in the corporate world, where at the age of 42, she became the CEO of a $2bn healthcare financial institution. In just 3 years, she tripled earnings and sent employee engagement skyrocketing. 

And just when things were going great, she decided to walk away so that she could help solve what truly breaks her heart: the immense lack of authenticity in the workplace. 

Through her company, b Authentic inc, Erin is provoking a movement to eradicate the all-too-fake corporate environment and helping people and companies realize that doing authentic can be their new secret weapon to success.
