Margaret Heffernan (born 16 June 1955) is an entrepreneur, CEO, writer and keynote speaker. She is currently a professor of Practice at the University of Bath School of Management in the UK.

Heffernan is the former chief executive officer of five businesses and is the writer of five books that explore the areas of business and leadership. She teaches entrepreneurship, mentors executives as part of a leadership development company, and makes presentations for corporations, associations, and universities.

While Heffernan's first two books focused on leadership and entrepreneurship and how they impact women in the workplace, her overarching theme is recognizing and releasing the talent that often lies buried inside organizations, under-valued and under-rewarded because it is unconventional.
