The Social Academic with Jennifer van Alstyne | Online Presence for Professors Introducing a Warm Association for Higher Ed Consultants and Coaches with Claire Brady, EdD
This year, I joined an Association for Higher Education Consultants and Coaches (AHECC). It's been such a warm community, I wanted to share it with you too. Meet co-founder, Claire Brady.
AHECC is a place "to build a community where higher education consultants and coaches can thrive together...Whether you're an independent practitioner, part of a consulting firm, or supporting client success behind the scenes, AHECC is here to connect you with peers who understand your work, your challenges, and your ambitions."

Dr. Claire Brady is a successful higher education consultant and nationally recognized leader in artificial intelligence, organizational strategy, and student success. As President of Glass Half Full Consulting, she helps colleges and universities harness the power of AI to strengthen leadership, streamline operations, and create more human-centered institutions.
Claire is also one of four co-founders of the Association for Higher Education Consulting and Coaching (AHECC)—the only professional association dedicated to higher education consultants and coaches. AHECC was founded with one powerful idea: to build a community where consultants and coaches can thrive together. Through this work, Claire helps shape a national network of professionals committed to connection, collaboration, and excellence in serving higher education.
With over 25 years of experience as a vice president, faculty member, and executive leader, Claire has guided institutions through cultural change and digital transformation with clarity, care, and a bias toward action. Her national report, The Transformative Potential of AI: Recommendations for Student Affairs Leaders (NASPA & Strada Education Foundation), and her upcoming book on responsible AI in higher ed reflect her passion for aligning technology with mission and meaning. Claire lives in Orlando with her husband, Ben, and their son.
