Leadership Performance Strategist for leaders in mission-driven, complex organizations
Los Angeles, California

When a capable leader starts struggling, the impact rarely stays between that person and their manager. Decisions slow down. People start working around them. Team confidence erodes. By the time HR is asked to intervene, an important priority may already be stalled and the organization may feel forced to choose between waiting too long and giving up too soon. Asia Bribiesca-Hedin helps healthcare and other mission-driven organizations navigate that decision with greater clarity. Through keynotes, workshops, and performance advisory engagements, she helps executive and HR teams determine whether a capable but underperforming leader can recover, what intervention the situation requires, and how they will know whether it is working. Asia brings more than 20 years of experience at the intersection of strategy, leadership development, and execution, including management consulting at Ernst & Young and nearly a decade leading strategic portfolio work at City of Hope. She has spoken for the American College of Healthcare Executives and the Society of Women Engineers, and has supported leaders at organizations spanning multiple industries, including Kaiser Permanente, GSK, TransUnion, the San Francisco 49ers, Creative Artists Agency, and others. Her Fix vs. Fire Decision Framework gives organizations a firm and fair way to assess what is at stake, identify what is actually driving the performance gap, determine recoverability, match the response to the situation, and define the evidence that will guide the final decision. Her work has helped increase adoption from 62.5% to 92.3% and helped a senior leader’s team operate independently again within four weeks. Asia is known for making difficult leadership problems easier to understand and act on. Her sessions combine candid truth-telling, practical tools, and clear next steps participants can use immediately. Book Asia for a keynote, workshop, or leadership program, or start a confidential conversation about the leader, team, or strategic priority that cannot stay stuck.

Student success depends on more than academic preparation. Bonnie Brindle believes it also depends on whether institutions recognize the hidden emotional barriers preventing students from fully engaging in college life. A former classroom teacher, instructional coach, and psychotherapist with more than 25 years in education and two decades in private practice, Bonnie has spent her career helping people perform at their best under pressure. Her educational leadership experience includes rebuilding psychological safety among faculty teams, strengthening educator collaboration, and supporting school improvement efforts that contributed to measurable gains in student outcomes. As one principal shared: "Bonnie's ability to bring independent professional educators from various backgrounds together for a common cause is a true gift... educators became more collaborative and confident in their pedagogy, leading to significant improvements in our most recent student climate survey. In addition, the school's overall student proficiency ratings for reading and math increased from 55% to 77% from 2022–2025 during and after Bonnie and I worked side-by-side to support the psychological safety of the staff and focus on top-tier student outcomes." — Dr. Kristen Lewis, Principal, Manhattan Middle School, Boulder, Colorado Today Bonnie helps colleges and universities apply these same principles to higher education through keynotes, workshops, professional development, and consulting partnerships focused on student persistence, faculty awareness and effectiveness, and anxiety-informed institutional culture. Her presentations are practical, engaging, research-informed, and immediately actionable, giving audiences strategies they can implement the very next day.
