BRENDA NECKVATAL - BIOGRAPHY

Brenda Neckvatal helps the strongest leaders deal with the messiest people—because leadership gets real when emotions get loud, trust gets shaky, and egos start swinging. She’s a three-time bestselling author, an award-winning Human Results expert, and a serial entrepreneur featured in Forbes, Entrepreneur, Fast Company, Inc., and US News & World Report.


After 18 years inside six Fortune 500 companies, Brenda transitioned out of traditional HR and into Human Results, where the goal isn’t checking boxes. It’s getting results. Her no-fluff strategies have helped over 1,000 leaders and 700 companies avoid costly mistakes, fix toxic dynamics, and build teams that actually work.


Brenda has spoken on nearly 400 stages, delivering high-impact transformational keynotes that break through the audience’s mental background noise and land with such precision, audiences lean in, lose track of time, and get fully immersed in the message. With 30 years of experience, she’s a trusted mentor in crisis management, group dynamics, and leadership transformation—especially when the stakes are high and the people are difficult.


She also donates 32 weeks a year to The Honor Foundation, helping Navy SEALs and Special Forces veterans navigate the transition to civilian life with purpose and clarity.


When chaos shows up at your door, Brenda is the call you make.
