Brenda Denbesten Bio

Brenda provides speaking, mentoring, and coaching services to driven women in STEM so they can gain clarity on their unique strengths and skills and the confidence to leverage these for maximum impact in the workplace. She is the best-selling author of "the FIFO wives tales and the creator of 'Chronicles of a Female Engineer' a YouTube series that provides tips to flourish in your career in typically male-dominated fields.

Her transition to coaching was underpinned by her 15 years of experience as a chemical engineer in operations and senior management roles across mining and manufacturing industries. As an advocate and driver for change, she noticed the value women can bring to the workplace when they step up, speak up and stand out to create better solutions.

She is renowned for my strong interpersonal skills, empathetic approach, and ability to empower her clients to create their careers by design rather than by default.
