Ultimately, Barrhonda helps leaders prepare to have personal and professional proud moments while yielding significant value for their respective organizations.
Barrhonda’s eclectic coaching approach blends her diverse background in operational leadership, process engineering and human resources with psychological theories such a cognitive behavioral theory, positive psychology and self-discrepancy theory. Clients describe Barrhonda as offering a safe space for vulnerability, direct feedback, and behavioral change that fosters impactful growth. She helps clients broaden perspectives and upgrade strengths.
