About Allyson’s Keynote

Eva Harrison
Eva HarrisonDirector, Executive Programs, U.S. Department of Energy
“It was very interactive — people were genuinely engaged the entire time. Normally during virtual sessions, folks are multitasking and barely responding to emails, but during Allyson’s session, everyone was fully involved. The team walked away with practical tools they’re still using — not just professionally, but personally as well. It was a refreshing and memorable experience.”

"It was a pure delight having Allyson Ward as our presenter and trainer! Her engaging style made the event run smoothly, filled with laughter, openness, and meaningful takeaways that we can apply both at work and in our personal lives. We also appreciate Kendall’s wonderful support throughout. The video and playlists she shared were a great addition for the team. We’ll definitely be recommending Allyson to our colleagues!"

"Allyson was absolutely phenomenal. Our team ATE UP everything she shared — it was the highlight of our Energy Week. The next morning, our President of Unilever USA, opened her remarks by saying, ‘I’ve been working on my personal development for 20+ years, and I learned some new things yesterday from Allyson.’ That says it all. The session created so much buzz and meaningful reflection across our teams. Allyson brought energy, clarity, and actionable insight — a rare combination that truly resonates with high-performing professionals.”
