Our Impact
We Have an Unwavering Commitment to Leadership Development; Our Impact Spans the Globe.
Here are some testimonials from clients near and far we’ve been so fortunate to work with.
Brenda led two retreats for our team in 2024, a senior leadership retreat in May and an all-staff retreat in October. In each case, she had not met or worked with the majority of those staff prior to the event. By the end of each, folks were eager to share and put their learnings into action, thanks to Brenda’s incisive activities and active facilitation of our discussions. We are still using tools she introduced us to, helping us navigate a tumultuous time for our work. I knew from my time with Brenda as my executive coach that her tactful candor and recognition of how humans actually function could be catalysts for tremendous growth and useful change when met with commitment from the client. Seeing her in action at our retreats further illustrated her value proposition in this space, and our team wants to continue working with her as a facilitator and partner for our team-building efforts.

I never hesitate to recommend Brenda to my clients who call for a great leadership coach. She is professional, effective and shows great integrity in all she does. I always hear back what an impact she has had. I will gladly continue to recommend her with the utmost confidence.

The NAHMA Emerging Leaders Learning Series (NELLS), created and facilitated by Brenda Harrington, is an exceptional learning experience for new managers and leaders in the affordable housing management profession. In the program, Brenda provides three group sessions and two one-to-one coaching sessions for each participant, giving them the opportunity to relate knowledge gained into their individual work environments and thus accelerating the development of valuable new professional habits. I can’t imagine anyone other than Brenda conducting the program – her knowledge and expertise coupled with her warm and accessible demeanor are uniquely perfect for facilitating this important learning experience for NAHMA members.

The Global Good Fund has had the distinct honor of working with Brenda consistently for more than six years. Brenda goes above and beyond in every coaching relationship. She always follows through. Most important, Brenda genuinely believes in the individuals she coaches. Brenda is an absolute pro at helping each individual live his or her full potential.

Brenda has a deep well of knowledge in leadership development, and extensive experience working with global organizations. I have entrusted her with several engagements, from coaching my senior executives to training my team leaders. Her understanding of how to communicate in a respectful and effective manner in a multi-cultural environment is a significant advantage, and she is well-equipped to understand and help address the challenges that this environment can present. I am thrilled to have her as a resource I can turn to when I need assistance supporting my global organization.
As a growing global organization, we have expanded our footprint into new regions during my tenure. When it was time to relocate one of our senior leaders to a new office to drive our expansion, I needed assistance in researching and designing a competitive compensation package for this role. Brenda’s experience in workforce mobility was a huge asset. Engaging another partner to assist her with this project, together they provided me with a thorough market analysis of local pay trends, and thoughtfully guided me through issues that we needed to consider and plan for to ensure a successful relocation and repatriation of our manager. The relocation was a success; and based on the support and knowledge I gained working with Brenda on this project, I’m confident we have the tools to manage this process seamlessly in the future.

Brenda’s direct and action oriented approach helped propel me, particularly around work/life struggles and stories where I’ve limited myself. Through thoughtful questioning and a series of co-created actions, Brenda helped me envision new ways to proactively develop a stronger voice by setting boundaries and making better requests of others. She got me moving forward instead of staying in the spin cycle I had created. I am less afraid to succeed. I am facing down the fear that doing so may cause me to fail at home.
