Allison is an expert on realistic solutions for the everyday challenges of getting your message across, creating buy-in and finding time to get it all done.

A graduate of Auburn University with a BA in Communications, cum laude, Allison was named an Outstanding Young Woman of America just two years after graduation. She was a member of the management team that won the Malcolm Baldridge Quality Award for The Ritz-Carlton Hotel Company and was awarded the Jim Barber Leadership Award for the state of Florida in 2004. That same year she was named Speaker of the Year by the Florida Speakers Association.
In addition to becoming a more confident and persuasive communicator, Allison is highly sought after as a topic expert in leadership issues, and was selected from 350 speakers to headline the National Women’s Leadership tour sponsored by Rockhurst University based in Kansas City; she has also spoken at Clemson’s Leadership Symposium. She has written training programs for Rockhurst University, Florida Gulf Coast University, Padgett-Thompson Training and National Seminars Group.
