Alicia is herself - she is vulnerable, up-front and tells it like it is. She is also very good at engaging with the audience. Alicia doesn't read off notes. She gave us learnings and tools we could take away and use. It was inspirational, funny, and vulnerable. I would recommend Alicia for events where you want to challenge your delegates' thinking, inspire them, and make them think differently.

A huge thank you for your outstanding presentation to my team this afternoon. I’ve had so much great feedback on your session, and some of your phrases have already entered our lexicon. I am very grateful to you for having brought your wisdom, experience, and obvious enthusiasm for the local government sector to our meeting today. Thanks again

Alicia brings a vitality and a freshness which just opens everyone up to her. When a room atmosphere might start to feel quite heavy, it doesn’t take long for her to turn that into a bubbly and constructive environment. What we’re seeing at all levels is the reference back to those strategic priorities and our vision, not only in risk-related conversations but also in day to day business and project delivery conversations.

Alicia has a real talent for simplifying strategy in a way that is both thought provoking and incredibly impactful. We walked away from our short session with a collective understanding of the gaps and opportunities we have, which has given us a renewed energy and focus to really nail our strategy. As a speaker Alicia was engaging and relatable – her wealth of experience is obvious, but at the same time she makes it seem so achievable which I think is a pretty powerful combination

Alicia brings strategic insight to her MC duties. She weaved a great narrative between speakers and bridged the sessions in a way that landed well with our audience of business leaders and owners. With 1000 things in my head at any given time organising a conference, her straight-shooting communication style is appreciated. The feedback from our attendees has been great!

"Alicia absolutely nailed the guest speaker talk at our RISE UP event celebrating female entrepreneurship! She was entertaining, inspiring, engaging and her down-to-earth manner made her easy to relate to and connect with. Our audience members were totally enraptured and we’ve never received so much positive feedback about a guest speaker before."

Alicia is a dynamic and engaging presenter who despite having to run the session virtually was able to keep participants engaged throughout. Alicia is able to balance imparting wisdom with some genuine humour. I would love to work with Alicia again.

I've never heard a speaker that cuts through the complexity of strategy quite like Alicia. Her speeches are powerful and strike at the very heart of what's required to create meaningful direction that can give rise to the cultures required to get things done. She is honest, forthright and uses case studies to land her points. Highly recommended!

I really enjoyed Alicia's ability to read the room and adapt quickly. Thanks to Alicia's contribution our awards ceremony was conducted efficiently. She was not afraid to deviate from the script when warranted which is a great thing! I highly recommend Alicia for emcee and facilitation roles.

I enjoyed Alicia's down to earth, no-nonsense approach. It was a great contrast to our government attendees! Thanks to Alicia's contribution, our event was set up with a fantastic undertone that continued on across the following two days. Alicia, and her content, was often referred to in presentations by other speakers and events afterwards. She's a great communicator who sets the tone of the event, and responds to the vibe of the audience really well. I would recommend Alicia for events where you want to have a little bit of fun and 'cut through the crap'.

"Alicia was funny, engaging, got the audience (and myself thinking) and was not boring for a moment! Having Alicia as the MC with her engaging and personable style was great. Alicia injects fun (while taking the job seriously), and I would thoroughly recommend her for events where you need some "lightness" in the program. Alicia was also a pleasure to work with both online and in person."

I loved that Alicia knew the local government sector so well. Alicia's style was relatable and in tune with the audience. Her communication was clear and she was a delight to work with and her ability to discuss concepts and theory, within a story and giving the audience the tools to embed new practices into their daily schedules, or operationalise the theory was amazing. I would recommend Alicia for masterclasses and conferences. Alicia has this ability to speak to anyone in the audience, and empower them in their role. Whether they are CEOs or coordinators.

Alicia was a fantastic speaker at our recent Inspire event. Our attendees have provided us feedback that they learned of the importance of delving into uncomfortable situations, in order to grow. Alicia reinforced that it’s okay to not be perfect. Waikato Chamber of Commerce.

Alicia calls things out. She's upfront. She's really focused and keeps everyone on track. Great bubbly personality. Great sessions. I've felt inspired and motivated after each one. So worth the time and energy!

Alicia is direct and to the point, which gives a fabulous insight and amazing clarity with her contribution to our conference. I'm really looking forward to our next collaboration!

Alicia has delivered keynotes for our summits, on the virtual stage and in person. In either setting, Alicia exceeds expectations. She is a dream to work with, the feedback from delegates is outstanding, and you can't wait to put her takeaways into practice. What's not to love!
