About Dani Tan

You\'re delivering results, showing up for your team, and performing at a level that\'s already beyond your title. But the promotion still hasn\'t come. And when you ask why, the feedback stays vague:\"keep doing what you\'re doing,\"\"you\'re on the right track,\" without a clear path forward. I was there. I went from a sample coordinator to VP, securing 11 promotions in 11 years. Not by being the loudest person in the room. But by learning exactly how advancement works inside organizations and building a strategy around it. As a first-generation Asian-Latina leader, I learned that hard work alone doesn\'t get you promoted. Visibility does. Stakeholder alignment does. Knowing how to position your strengths. That\'s why I founded She Belongs Here, because ambition deserves a strategy. She Belongs Here builds that. Now I build that strategy for leaders and for the organizations that want to keep them. For individual leaders: Inside private coaching, we build your promotion strategy, executive presence, stakeholder alignment, and negotiation confidence, so you can lead and stop feeling stuck. Clients feel clearer with a focused plan within 2 sessions. From there, they land their next promotion within their next promotion cycle. For organizations, ERGs, and leadership programs: I partner with companies and conferences to deliver keynotes, workshops, and leadership development experiences that help teams build culture and belonging. Speaking topics include: Getting Promoted, Executive Presence & Visibility, Negotiation & Salary Strategy, ERG Strategy, and Leading Across Cultural Differences. Past partners and events include: Morning Brew Culture Summit, Comcast (Unidos ERG), Shoptalk / Hyve Group (EmbRACE ERG), Cal State LA, eTail, Year Up, HACE, HER Workplace, Latina Professionals, Johns Hopkins University, and Baddies in Tech.\"Working with her feels like having a cheerleader in your corner — she helped me step out of my comfort zone, ask the tough questions, and develop a strategic plan.\" — Lexy Williams, Director \"She captivated the room. Funny, honest, so many great takeaways. A wealth of knowledge with great stage presence. I would highly recommend her.\" — Kristin Schoenstein, Chief of Staff, eTail Visit danitan.com to learn more, read reviews, and book a discovery call.
