Brian Enright, Ph.D., MBA

Brian Enright helps leaders maximize their strengths while turning blind spots into growth. His work spans executive coaching, leadership assessment, team development, and succession planning, always with a focus on uncovering the root causes that drive lasting change.

As a leadership coach based in St. Louis, Brian partners with executives across the U.S. and internationally in industries like construction, healthcare, manufacturing, and finance. Clients describe him as both sincere and strategic. He listens closely, gets to the root of issues quickly, and delivers feedback in a way people can hear. He’s known for blending wit with candor, creating an environment where leaders feel understood while also being pushed to grow.

His early career as a Captain in the United States Air Force shaped his direct yet empathetic style, where he learned to lead in a high-pressure, post-9/11 environment. Combined with two decades of consulting experience, this background gives Brian a unique ability to see connections others miss and guide leaders toward clarity and confidence.

Brian holds a PhD and an MA in Psychology from the University of Missouri–St. Louis. His doctoral research focused on assessment in employee selection. He also earned an MBA from the University of Otago in New Zealand and graduated with highest honors from Butler University. His career has also taken him abroad, where he lived and worked in Germany and Okinawa, Japan. Over the years, he has published peer-reviewed research and presented at professional conferences. He has also taught graduate-level courses in cognitive and personality assessment.

When he isn’t working with clients, Brian enjoys traveling and the outdoors with his wife and son. He also volunteers in community-building initiatives and in programs that encourage children’s interest in science.
