Emily Hannenberg

Emily is driven by her deep belief in the power of leaders to make the world better, even if it’s one small team at a time.

Throughout a decade of experience in the United States Army as an Engineer officer, she was recognized for exemplary leadership, organizational innovation, and her abilities as a leader, coach, teacher, and mentor. At increasing levels of responsibility, Emily led soldiers in and out of combat while coaching and empowering her diverse teams to solve complex problems. Her final assignment was as an Assistant Professor of Military Science at MIT in Cambridge, Massachusetts. After 10 years of active-duty service, Emily left the Army to pursue a civilian career in leadership development. She served as the Head of Strategy for The Leadership Consortium, a leadership accelerator, where she helped to design and deliver high-impact, inclusive programming and coaching for leaders at best-in-class organizations.

Emily brings a human-centered approach to her work as a program designer, coach, and facilitator. She has supported leaders across industries, functions, and countries, showing up with quiet confidence, curiosity, full presence, and compassion, allowing leaders to feel supported and inspired – leaving sessions armed with new perspectives, tools, and connections.

Emily is an avid surfer and woodworker and lives with her wife Rachel and their dog Marley in Oceanside, California.
