The Promotion & Protection Experience

A 6-Month Private Coaching Program for Women Who Are Ready to Get Clear on What They Want, Confident in How They Show up, and Protected Against the Things That Derail High-Performing Women at Every Level.
Stop Being the Best-Kept Secret in the Room.
 
The Promotion Readiness Experience uses the Playful Power Method to help high-performing professionals position themselves for promotion and leadership visibility.

Promotion decisions rarely come down to effort.
They come down to how leadership perceives your readiness.
 
Most professionals don’t know exactly what is blocking their promotion.

The Promotion Readiness Audit diagnoses:
• perception gaps
• visibility challenges
• leadership signals are missing from your reputation

You leave with a clear strategy for positioning yourself for the next level.

Coach Brittanni is the epitome of women empowerment! She took the time to listen to me and cultivate a plan. Not only was she able to shine a light upon me she adjusted my crown reminding me the seat at the table is mine! She assured me my environment is not healthy and a pivot is necessary.

— Olufunke S., DC

What Becomes Possible

By the end of this program, clients typically:

• position themselves as leadership candidates
• communicate with executive-level clarity
• build influence with decision-makers
• increase salary and advancement opportunities

Why High Performers Often Get Passed Over

Most professionals believe promotions go to the hardest worker.
 
Inside organizations, that’s rarely how decisions are made.
 
Leadership discussions sound more like:
  • Who already thinks strategically?
  • Who can represent the team at the next level
  • Who commands the room when they speak?
 
The professionals who get promoted are often the ones already demonstrating these signals.
 
The Playful Power Method helps you develop them intentionally.

"I highly recommend working with Brittanni. My sessions with her were some of the best coaching sessions I’ve had, and I look forward to working with her again in the future."

- Joanne S., Pennsylvania

This program is for you if...

  • You've been told to 'be more strategic' or 'increase your visibility', but no one has explained what that actually means or how to do it
     
  • You've been passed over for a promotion you were qualified for, and you're not sure why
     
  • You're a Senior Individual Contributor eyeing a move into formal leadership, or exploring whether starting your own business makes more sense
     
  • You work hard and perform well, but your external reputation doesn't reflect your internal confidence or capability
     
  • You want access to the right rooms, the right sponsors, and the right conversations, and you're not sure how to get there
     
  • You're ready to stop waiting to be noticed and start positioning yourself intentionally

What We Work On Together

The Promotion Readiness Experience, built on the Playful Power Method, is a leadership positioning framework designed to help capable professionals become the obvious choice for promotion.

It focuses on four leadership signals that decision-makers trust.
1 / Clarity + Career Strategy

Most professionals trying to get promoted are pursuing roles without a clear strategy. We will map out a blueprint for your next 6-month career strategy.

2 / Courage + Leadership Positioning

Promotion is rarely about capability alone. It is about how leadership perceives you. This phase shifts how you show up inside the organization. We work on positioning to influence how leadership perceives you.

3 / Communication + Strategic Visibility

Most promotions are influenced by who knows your work. This phase increases exposure in the right places. We work through strategic visibility to make sure you build relationships with the right internal sponsors.

4 / Consistency + Promotion Strategy

Once positioning improves, the focus shifts to promotion conversations and internal mobility. We work on advocating for your next role, leveraging sponsors, and negotiating your salary.

When these four signals align, leadership begins to see you differently.

Drawing on more than a decade of experience in talent development, leadership strategy, and positive psychology, I challenge the belief that promotions are earned through performance alone.

My mission is to help ambitious women become impossible to overlook.

Brittanni is a great listener, and she was great at diverting the attention and focus back to me. I would be sharing about my experience and what was bothering me, and she would allow me to switch the perspective back to myself and what the real focus should be."

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Is this coaching or consulting?
This is coaching, which means we focus on your specific situation, goals, and growth. I bring 15+ years of talent and leadership development expertise to every conversation, so our sessions are grounded in real organizational context, not abstract frameworks.
 
How is this different from a mentor or a manager?
Your manager evaluates your performance. A mentor shares their experience. A coach helps you develop the insight, strategy, and skills to navigate your own path, with no agenda other than your advancement. I hold space for honest conversation that is hard to have with anyone inside your organization.
 
What if I'm not sure I'm ready for a promotion yet?
That is exactly what the Promotion Readiness Audit is for. We diagnose where you are, what is holding you back, and whether the 6-month program is the right next step for you. There is no pressure to enroll.
 
I'm also exploring starting my own business. Can this program help with that?
Yes. A significant part of this work is clarity about what you want and confidence in your ability to lead at the next level, whether that is inside your current organization or as the founder of your own. Many clients use this program to map both paths and decide which one aligns with their goals and life.
 
What is your cancellation policy?
Sessions are bi-weekly and scheduled in advance. I ask for 24 hours' notice to reschedule. Payment plans are billed monthly. No refunds are issued after enrollment, but sessions may be transferred if life circumstances change.
