Tom Heetderks

Tom Heetderks has been a Human Resources executive and business educator (Dean of Business) for 30 years. He’s worked at and driven consulting initiatives with some of the most well-known and successful organizations in the world. And if you or a family member have applied for a job, there’s a pretty good chance you’ve experienced a people system or pre-hire assessment designed or implemented by him.

Tom has a PhD in industrial and organizational psychology and is a devoted husband, a father of three and grandfather of two.

With "Work Worth Doing," published by Harvest House Publishers, Tom encourages us to see the loving, all-sovereign God in our work and careers.

For "The Worm Saver," Tom's daughter asked him to write a "before you go" story for his two-year old grandson. For inspiration, Tom used the only two things that he has from his grandpa: his grandpa's Oxford Bible; notes from his grandpa's children's sermon about the importance of worms. In 2023, proceeds from the sale of "The Worm Saver" will go to the Cancer Research Institute.
