Official Feedback from In-Person & Virtual Events
Feedback from In-Person Events:
“Alison’s workshop on building self-confidence for speaking delivered to business owners and professionals attending our in person networking event was a standout success within our networking calendar of events.. Alison’ engaging delivery, expertise, and authentic connection with the audience left a lasting impression. Highly recommended for anyone seeking to enhance their communication skills in a business context.” - Mark, Federation of Small Businesses (FSB)
“Alison is quick witted and charismatic when she gives talks. She is also good at adapting her talks to each audience she encounters. When she spoke for me at my Christmas lunch she gave me various topics to choose from and this is important. If you have a speaker who can speak on a number of subjects relating to their industry, you know you can invite them back and they will entertain the audience with new and fresh material.” - Sue, Creative Connecting
“She makes you feel so relaxed and comfortable in her sessions so you feel you can open up and discuss things. We did a session on looking at taking back control of yourself and managing your wellbeing and it was such an eye opener! Alison delved into the mind and how it works and behaviours that result from it and it really resonated with me as I started to understand why I behave in certain ways sometimes. 100% recommend speaking to Alison.” - Sophia, The Women's Organisation
