About Debbie Brey

Software engineer turned enterprise change leader

Introduction

I'm Debbie Brey, founder of PlanetBrey Consulting. I'm not your typical transformation consultant—I'm a software engineer turned enterprise change leader who's spent decades inside programs navigating the very constraints most consultants only read about.

At Boeing, I led major transformation efforts across complex, regulated environments. What set me apart then—and now—is my ability to see across technical, organizational, and process dimensions to help leaders solve the real problems holding them back.

What Makes Me Different

🔶

I've lived it

I was embedded in programs while leading transformations, not watching from the sidelines.

🔶

I think in systems

I understand how business, technology, and human dynamics interact—and how to improve them.

🔶

I stay pragmatic

No jargon. No fluff. Just clear thinking and solutions that stick.

Purpose

To empower organizations to solve real business challenges by transforming the systems, behaviors, and structures that hold them back—using practical tools and insights born from experience.

Core Values

Honesty & Integrity

Say what's true—even when it's hard—because trust is the foundation of lasting change.

Collaboration

The best solutions are built together. I work with you, not on you.

Grit

Solving hard problems takes persistence and nerve. I don't walk away when it gets messy.

Continuous Learning

Every engagement is a chance to learn. I bring curiosity and discipline to every challenge.

People First

Systems don't change—people do. I help create conditions where they can thrive.

Legacy

I measure success not by slides delivered or tools deployed, but by whether organizations are solving problems more effectively long after I'm gone. That's the legacy I built at Boeing—and the one I bring to every client today.
