April Beyer is a pioneering relationship expert, keynote speaker, and corporate advisor who has spent more than 25 years helping people and organizations master the art of connection. She is the Founder and CEO of LEVEL Connections, a first-of-its-kind matchmaking and relationship consulting agency, and the creator of a proprietary compatibility algorithm—often referred to as “the Myers-Briggs for the Heart.” With an extraordinary 89% matchmaking success rate and only a 1% divorce rate among couples she’s brought together, April has proven that authentic connection is both a science and a skill.

Recognized by Dr. Phil as “the best of the best,” April’s authority in the relationship and communication field has made her a sought-after voice in national media. She has been featured on Good Morning America, CBS, MSNBC, ABC’s 20/20, The Dr. Phil Show, and cited in The New York Times. She hosted VH1’s Making Mr. Right and served as the resident expert on Anna Faris’s hit podcast Unqualified. These achievements highlight her rare ability to blend entertainment value with research-driven insights on human behavior and connection.

As an entrepreneur, April broke new ground by launching LEVEL™, the first tech-enabled matchmaking platform designed to align individuals across 10 categories of compatibility known to create connection and happy relationships. This innovation, combined with her extensive one-on-one client work, has positioned her as both a trusted advisor to executives and a thought leader on the future of relationships—personal and professional alike. April has helped leaders and teams in organizations such as Amgen, OpenX, AWS, Greylock, Humana, Live Nation, and Morgan Stanley, to name a few.

What makes April unique among corporate keynote speakers is her ability to translate the principles of successful matchmaking into actionable strategies for organizations. After conducting thousands of interviews and analyzing extensive feedback, she recognized that the same qualities that make a marriage thrive—curiosity, compassion, authenticity, and relatability—are the very ones that create inclusive, engaged, and high-performing workforces.

At the heart of April’s message is the belief that curiosity is a learned skill—and one of the most powerful tools leaders can cultivate. As a self-proclaimed lifelong “WHY girl,” her childhood curiosity about patterns and human behavior became the foundation of her career. Today, she teaches organizations how curiosity, paired with compassion, can unlock deeper understanding, fuel innovation, and strengthen collaboration across diverse teams.

April challenges outdated business wisdom that tells us to separate our professional and personal selves. Instead, she shows why integrating humanity into leadership builds trust, respect, and loyalty. When people feel connected to a shared mission—whether in a marriage or in a company—they are more invested, inspired, and motivated to succeed.

Her programs offer organizations practical insights into:

Harnessing curiosity to enhance communication, collaboration, and innovation

Building trust and loyalty through relatability and compassion

Creating authentic, inclusive workplace cultures where people feel seen and valued

Reducing turnover and “corporate divorces” by hiring and retaining the right people

Empowering leaders to connect more deeply and inspire more effectively

April’s message is clear: connection is the ultimate competitive advantage. By teaching leaders and teams to be more authentic, curious, compassionate, and relatable, she equips organizations with the most powerful tools for thriving in today’s rapidly changing workplace.

Whether addressing a global audience of executives or working with a small leadership team, April leaves audiences with the strategies—and inspiration—to cultivate stronger relationships, more cohesive teams, and cultures that truly thrive.

Inspiring Engagement: How Relatability Creates Workplace Unity

Relatability isn’t a “nice-to-have”—it’s essential to both personal and professional success.

Why does this matter? Because relatability acts as an “immune system” for your workplace, protecting teams from disengagement, disconnection, and dissatisfaction.

In this insightful keynote, April introduces her Diving For Gold Method™—a powerful approach that turns everyday conversations into meaningful, productive, and connection-driven experiences.

You’ll learn how to foster a workplace culture rooted in authentic connection—one where people share openly, support one another, and collaborate seamlessly. That’s the power of relatability.

Key Takeaways Include:

● Strengthen your leadership skills

● Foster emotional curiosity

● Create a sense of belonging that drives loyalty, productivity, and innovation
