At Best of Best Review, we seek out pioneers who aren’t just leading their industries, but rewriting the rules. That’s why we’re proud to recognize Dr. Khai Win as the Best Brain-Based Leadership Coach in New York City of 2026. Her work at Invisible Wins is not only redefining how leadership development is taught, it’s fundamentally transforming how high performers, teams, and organizations relate to stress, burnout, and performance.

Dr. Win, known to many as "Your Neighborhood Brain Whisperer," blends the precision of neuroscience with the wisdom of lived experience. With a PhD focused on how memory and stress shape the brain, she brings a rare ability to make the invisible visible. But what truly sets her apart isn’t just academic insight, it’s her capacity to translate that science into real-life breakthroughs for her clients. She’s not interested in coaching from the surface. She works at the root.

Her approach challenges conventional wisdom. In Dr. Win’s words, “Workplace struggles aren’t people problems, they’re brain problems.” It's a bold claim, but one that resonates deeply in today’s workplaces, where traditional leadership strategies often fall flat. Her coaching doesn’t start with behavior change, it begins with understanding the nervous system’s current state. Is the brain stuck in survival mode? Is the leader operating from fear, fatigue, or fight-or-flight? These are the questions that shape her approach.

New York City, with its intensity and high-performance culture, is a place where burnout can become invisible. Dr. Win’s clients include ambitious professionals, exhausted leaders, and teams that sense something isn’t working, but can’t name what. That’s where she comes in. Her genius lies in identifying the “invisible wins”, those small but powerful shifts that help people interrupt reactive patterns, regain clarity, and lead with steadiness again.

Her impact has reached far beyond coaching rooms. In 2024, she was named a LinkedIn Community Voice for Stress Management, a testament to her growing influence in the leadership and mental fitness space. She’s spoken to crowds of 800+, offering practical tools for disrupting toxic cycles and creating cultures rooted in psychological safety. But her message remains personal and grounded. “You can't sustain external excellence while internal worlds are running on outdated programming,” she often says. It’s this balance of science and soul that makes her so uniquely effective.

Dr. Win’s work isn’t about fixing people or forcing outcomes. It’s about honoring the human brain under pressure and showing leaders how to work with it, not against it. Her frameworks are built around sequencing change in a way that actually sticks, starting with awareness, moving to capacity, and finally to sustainable performance. This clarity helps overwhelmed professionals reclaim their time, energy, and focus without adding another thing to their already full plates.

Invisible Wins isn’t just a coaching practice. It’s a movement. One where rewired leaders reshape how entire organizations function. As Dr. Win puts it, “Every invisible win matters, because rewiring individuals rewires organizations, one brain at a time.”

This award celebrates more than expertise, it honors integrity, authenticity, and a relentless commitment to building healthier, more human workplaces from the inside out. Dr. Khai Win is not only coaching the future of leadership, she’s rewriting it.
