What Clients Say About Working With Brenda

I was struggling with putting my strategic plans into action, challenging staff and with the general feeling of overwhelm. I knew I needed help but I did not know where to find it. I interviewed multiple "executive coaches" but many did not have the actions to back up their statements or the experience to get me where I needed to go. A friend recommended Brenda and, suddenly, things clicked.

Brenda was my executive coach for over a year. I started working with Brenda right after coming back from maternity leave and was settling into my new role as a VP. The range of tactics and insights she provided were invaluable and made incredible differences in my working style as well as among my team members. I am forever grateful for her encouragement, honesty, patience and enthusiasm that allowed me to excel in areas I never knew possible. In addition she helped me understand my core values as a leader and helped me shape my role in a very succinct and powerful way that has made impacts not only at work but in my personal life as well. Bottom line - Brenda freaking ROCKS!

Brenda is the consummate professional bringing effective solutions to every challenge I have had. Brenda's invaluable input has launched me forward both professionally and personally and she continues to support me with compassion and humor.

No doubt my life is changed and improved since we worked together. She walks the talk and she helped make some singular and critical connections for me. I cannot recommend her coaching highly enough.

"What a journey we've been on together!  It has been transformational- and I'll never forget you and our work.  Yours will be one of the voices in my head guiding me onward and upward- in a healthy way!"

I came to Brenda after working for months on my own to find the correct company to start the next part of my career. I had been trying to utilize tools and methods that are commonly available, but was consistently finding opportunities with companies that were not a good fit for my career path. I felt like I was swimming upstream on a chaotic career search. She helped me define what I wanted so that I could find exactly what I wanted. Brenda advised me through the interview process and I was able to find a great fit in less than 2 months. I would highly recommend working with Brenda, she will certainly be a part of my future growth.

Brenda made me work hard to understand where I'd been and why so that I could figure out the right direction to go next.  She was supportive but held me accountable and as a result played a critical role in my current position without even knowing it at the time. I was up all night after receiving an offer for a role I really wanted that came in below what I needed it to be. I played with the numbers, I debated with myself, I wrote emails to the hiring manager that I didn't send.  Eventually I gave up and went to bed.  But I woke up the next morning and realized I would have to admit to her if I accepted less than my target compensation and decided I owed us both my best effort. So, I wrote up a succinct list of points (hearing her coaching in my head as I did so) and called the hiring manager. By mid-day I had the offer I wanted and the job I'd been seeking for a long time. I am 100% certain that I would not be where I am without Brenda's guidance.  The best part is that I can continue to rely on her guidance to make the most of this opportunity.

During my recent career transition, I had the good fortune of working with Brenda Abdilla. Brenda provided the objectivity and clarity I needed to uncover what I truly wanted for the next stage of my professional life. Her smart, generous and thoughtful approach to coaching helped me gain a better understanding of myself, my past accomplishments and my future potential. Thanks to Brenda and my new found understanding of the opportunities available to me, I found a new job that is the perfect blend of fulfilling and enjoyable.

Brenda’s deep knowledge and expertise for personal development is coupled with a strong passion to help others grow and flourish in their lives. She has a way of helping you discover the one thing that is right in front of your face in a graceful and profound manner that continually knocks my socks off! Thank you Brenda!

Brenda is an indispensable extension of our team. She acts as sales coach for each of our salespeople, and she has helped me too! All this, and Brenda is a light, a delight, a gem of a gal. Lucky us!

I worked with Brenda Abdilla while I was contemplating the next step I should take with my career. Over the course of a few months we were able to start with the basics – what I wanted to do, what I thought I was good at, what others thought of me – and focused on those to help craft my ideal next step. After working through my strengths and skills and what my next role and organization would fit best, we worked this into a strategy of preparing my resume, interviewing skills & preparing for interviews. All of this work culminated in securing a new role with a world class organization that aligned to my strengths and skills and I really feel I could not have done all of this without Brenda’s guidance and assistance.

"Brenda truly created a non-threatening environment for me, and made it extremely easy for my thoughts and ideas to flow. I never felt self conscious or inhibited. I walked away from our session feeling energized and more engaged with what I want in my life and in my business than ever before. The ideas and thoughts she was able to bring out of me have elevated my self confidence and I now know that my future holds no boundaries."

Working with Brenda has changed my life! Her expertise, passion and energy are truly inspiring. Through various coaching exercises I gained valuable insight and more awareness to my leadership style. I worked through Emotional Intelligence, Leadership Profile and my defined my Goals and Vision. This provided me a newfound direction, confidence and clarity, which ultimately enhanced my value to my team and to my organization. I feel empowered with wisdom and gained a lifetime of experience through working with Brenda in only months.

Brenda allowed me to focus on my key goals and initiatives, which were very high level and not specific. At the conclusion of our conversations, I had a clear plan and a focus on the areas I could make an impact on immediately. I also created a plan with Brenda’s coaching that allowed me to stay on task with staying disciplined to meet my weekly goals.

Working with Brenda has been nothing short of outstanding. Not only is her guidance right-on-the money, but her style couldn’t be more enjoyable. It’s a special professional that can defuse the dread in a job search…Brenda has really helped.

I would highly encourage anyone interested in expanding their thought processes around their life and business to schedule a session(s) with Brenda. Not only does she have the expertise and skills necessary to lead and guide a conversation and stay on task, but also call any attributes out that may be inhibiting progress without even knowing it.

What makes Brenda’s coaching style different, is that she not only takes the verbally stated goals into consideration, but in addition, she is so good at listening for the other things that I was able to improve on and hold accountability for my part on improving as well.

It was great to realize what kind of person I am from the Enneagram type test and how true it was. Also, with the StrenghtsFinder test and my top 5 fit me to a tee. it was amazing how they both go hand and hand.

I would recommend this to anyone who wants to get to the next level and maximize their strengths to sell. What a difference it has made for me. This is a gradual effect over time, not immediate. Brenda is the best trainer/coach I ever had. She has helped me not only form a work stand point, but on a personal level as well. This was the best training I ever experienced.

Brenda has guided me with invaluable conversation leading to vision clarity, self validation and magical synchronicity of steps to ensure realization of my life goals!

Brenda’s coaching has lead to me feeling more confident as a manager, leader, and person.

Working with Brenda was extremely educational and productive. She provided outstanding feedback and guidance. I am really looking forward to working with her again in any future endeavors! Thank you for the opportunity to share some thoughts and wish you and Brenda much success.

Brenda, I can't tell you enough how much our time together helped me through this chapter in my career.  Really I was stuck and know I couldn't have gotten here alone.  The coaching and all the assessments gave me so much clarity.  I was not even nervous walking in to my new role this morning.

Life is at full speed.  Definitely lots of Momentum. Business is great. I recommend you often to friends and colleagues and will let you know when there is an opportunity for your help.  You helped me and continue to work on my  goal to have a series of speeches to appeal to many audiences – perhaps it will turn into a book.  You are my inspiration.  You are excellent coach.
