PROFESSIONAL BIO
Nim de Swardt is a Narrative Practitioner, Board Director, Advisor, Writer, and Speaker, but her most meaningful title is simply "human."
At 30, she broke new ground as the world’s first Chief Next-Generation Officer, reporting directly to the 70-year-old global CEO of a US$16B, 7th-generation family enterprise. This pioneering role gave her a front-row seat to the power and complexity of leading across generations, sparking a career devoted to helping others harness the stories that shape identity, culture, and legacy.
Today, Nim works with families and family offices to transform wealth into legacy capital through the science, story, and strategy of qualitative capital and guides leaders to re-author their leadership story for greater influence and impact.
Her work and insights have been featured in The New York Times, CEO Magazine, Forbes, Bloomberg, The Huffington Post, Entrepreneur Magazine, Smart Company, INC Magazine, Frankie Magazine, The Future Laboratory, and the Gold Coast Bulletin.
