She also developed more than 1,000 high-potential leaders, delivered over 50 global leadership cohorts and established a leadership ecosystem that included an alumni association, leadership labs, a leadership podcast with 281 episodes and 35,000 downloads, and enterprise impact dashboards.

Alongside this role, Britton also served as Chief of Staff, Presidents’ Council, supporting strategic alignment across 20 global business presidents and working closely with the Office of the CEO on enterprise governance and executive decision-making. She also served as Executive Development Director (Interim), where she designed executive development strategies for the company’s top 40 global leaders, including the CEO and C-suite executives.

Earlier in her career, Britton held leadership roles at HP, managing leadership and innovation development programs, and spent more than 12 years at Personnel Decisions International (PDI), later serving in leadership roles following its integration with Korn Ferry. She began her career in client-facing sales and account management, building a strong foundation in leadership consulting and organizational development.
