"The Working with Americans help from International Marketing Partners has already added tremendous value to our business. For example, we've already created a new Claire's language with clarity about how the same words can mean different things in different cultural contexts. We have also been able to give each other permission to check these potential misunderstandings. As we build Claire's into an international business, I have no doubt we'll be using their help again, this time, to get the Americans to understand non-Americans"
"Allyson and her team's work conducting our custom 'Leading Innovation' program consistently impressed us with its clear, engaging and challenging content for our global leaders across the many businesses in the Dentsu Aegis Network. The positive impact combined with Allyson's experience ensured the program was a success which we are rolling out across our regions. Allyson is an impressive, committed professional with whom it is a pleasure to work."
"Allyson Stewart-Allen is a true client-centric consultant, able to develop a powerful relationship through co-creation with the clients. In a classroom, her interactive pedagogy, her dynamism and her sense of humour enable her to create a strong link with the group of participants. She is a real learning facilitator!"
Allyson creates a no-fuss, constructive environment in which executives can discover for themselves what will move the dial on their collective performance... I saw her achieve exactly that with my own Board in a recent one-day workshop and the results exceeded all my expectations.
"Allyson Stewart-Allen has brought valuable strategic insight, fresh ideas, and an endless supply of energy to our project. We're lucky to have her as an extended part of our team."
"Over the past few years Allyson has proved herself to be an award-winning Programme Director through her work with us. Her commitment to understanding clients’ needs, and passion for delivering impact, is outstanding. I have no hesitation in recommending her work."
“During our special off-site strategy board meeting last year, we had the pleasure of inviting Allyson to the meeting for a one-day strategy workshop with our board of directors. The session with Allyson was extremely helpful to our board members and executive management in exploring key strategic issues for our company’s 2020 planned strategy. Allyson was very well prepared and thorough in addressing key issues and challenges facing professional boards when encountered with such endeavors."
