Why Birmingham Leaders Are Choosing Virtual Coaching
Letās be blunt, most corporate training is outdated.
Itās generic, performative, or built for systems that no longer work.
Dr. Kerstin Brehm offers something sharper:
ā” Virtual leadership coaching tailored to high-pressure roles and real humans navigating complex leadership challenges.
My clients lead teams across tech, healthcare, law, finance, and public service. Some run board meetings. Others are preparing to step into the spotlight.
