HR Huntsman
CEO & Founder of Leader's Edge
What if the secret to scaling your business isn’t in your systems—but in your soul?
HR Huntsman has spent over two decades transforming leaders from the inside out. As the founder of Leader’s Edge, he’s coached CEOs, entrepreneurs, and emerging leaders to break through growth ceilings—not by adding more tactics, but by aligning vision, culture, and character.
His journey began far from the boardroom. Raised in a home marked by dysfunction and adversity, HR channeled his early struggles into purpose. At 28, he launched a nonprofit that grew to 200 staff across five countries, building orphanages, drilling wells, and responding to global crises. But it wasn’t the projects that changed him—it was the leadership lessons forged in the fire of real-world impact.
Today, HR is a sought-after speaker, strategist, and coach who has delivered over 4,000 talks to more than 400,000 people worldwide. He’s on a mission to help leaders build “destination workplaces”—cultures where people don’t just perform, they thrive.
This is a conversation about resilience, reinvention, and the kind of leadership that doesn’t just grow companies—it changes lives.
