Place feedback on Alyson Keller
Feedback from Matt Williams on 10 Apr 2012 Alyson facilitated a team session with us following a period where there was a feeling that not all of us were 'on the same page'. The tools Alyson was able to provide the same and the 'safe' environment meant the team were able to give feedback to each other which has resulted in a far 'healthier' environment.
Feedback from Matt Williams on 10 Apr 2012 Alyson has been involved in running our Assessment/Development Centres for the past three years with these centres key to identifying our managers of tomorrow. Due to Alyson's strong organisational skills, robust design methodology and attention to detail, the results we achieve are first class. Thank you Alyson - a great help!
Feedback from Dave Boulton on 06 Apr 2012 A huge thanks for such an informative and eye opening session on day one! I am confident all the participants would agree it was a great way to kick off our development journey. I personally have learnt so much about myself already, and have had more than a few pennies drop about where I can start to develop / change / grow, to improve my personal and professional life. Of particular interest to me was how I am viewed by my manager and colleagues, and while seeing this information was scary and challenging, it was also liberating, giving me an opportunity and direction to change how I can effect my relationships and better both myself and team.
Feedback from Shane Gorst on 05 Apr 2012 Alyson has played an important part in our management development program for several years and in the two years I have had the pleasure of working with her she has continued to add more and more value with each interaction. I have been extremely impressed with her ability to take people on real and meaningfull journeys that accelearate their personal development and will certainly look to utilise her more across other areas of the business. Thanks Alyson
Feedback from Dan Walker on 03 Mar 2012 Alyson has a fantastic presentation style that is inclusive and informative. She managed to involve my whole team which is not easy considering they all have strong personalities. She then did some personal coaching for key people within my team and myself. This was fantastic and proved to be very useful for us. She also did a coaching course for me and the senior managers of NLG. So thanks Alyson for everything.
Feedback from Anna Kingston on 29 Feb 2012 Noel Leeming engaged Alyson to be the first part of many of our Leadership programmes. Her Centell Better Life Toolkit gives our experienced and potential leaders insights to themselves which in turn has driven good results for our business. Alyson facilitated detailed workshops based on this tool, and followed this up with coaching. Her warm an engaging personality meant our teams readily interacted and learnt from her. I'd hire her again in a heartbeat. Anna Kingston, Learning & Development Manager, Noel Leeming Group.
Feedback from Hamish Nuttall - ceo nakedbus.com on 28 Feb 2012 During the last three years Alyson has coached the management team at nakedbus.com. During this time she has been both supportive and challenging. Alyson has great empathy with the individuals she coaches and helps them to strive to be better. Alyson has also worked with the team to help us understand our behavioural styles. Importantly, team members have been given a better understanding of how to interact with each other effectively. Additionally we have used Alyson's behavioural tools to screen job applicants. Her analysis is on the money. I would thoroughly recommend Alyson both in a coaching role and also for her behavioural styles analysis.
Feedback from Stephanie Beswick on 10 Nov 2010 Alison was kind and helpful. She made great suggestions on how I can improve and I found her advice very true and execeptional. I hope to keep her up to date with how I progress and I feel very comfortable in contacting her should I need any further guidance.
Feedback from Dylan Weymouth on 10 Nov 2010 Through several sessions working with Alyson I have had the opportunity to really discover my own natural behaviour's and leadership styles and through the tools and coaching Alyson provides, I have been able to really develop a self awareness of the way I behave and interact with others. I would recommend Alyson to anybody wanting to know more about thier working behaviours, leadership styles and also that of others as well. These learnings bring another level to people management that is hugely beneficial. Thanks Alyson for all the learning and support you have provided!
Feedback from Dave on 08 Nov 2010 Fantastic energy through the whole process. Keep it up.
Feedback from Nick Tuck - GM Merchandise The Warehouse on 28 Jun 2009 I was first fortunate enough to meet Alyson, 18mths ago as part of a leadership assessment programme. As a result of this she subsequently started providing me with 1 on 1 coaching. I have found Alyson to be fantastic ! she helped me focus my attention onto the areas I needed to work on and provided timely professional support through discussion and reading material. Alyson was also prepared to challenge me on areas that needed some frank honesty. As a result of her coaching I can certainly confirm that I have grown as a person and my career has advanced as a result. I would recommend Alyson as a coach to those looking for a positive, professional, caring person to help them grow.
Feedback from Johnny Robinson on 06 Jan 2008 Centell quite simply offers an outstanding service all-round. Alyson is a fantastic consultant who provided professional, objective advice for a crucial career decision. Thank you. We look forward to working with you again in the future. Very highly recommended.
Feedback from Samara Brown on 04 Nov 2007 Right from the get-go I found Alyson to be professional and genuine in her approach and desire to assist me and my business achieve results. I recently engaged Alysons expertise in facilitating a pivotal project, the results of which were invaluable! Objective, professional, genuine & committed I highly recommend Centell processes & Alysons expertise to anyone looking at enhancing their own individual awareness and that of those around them. I look forward to a solid partnership moving forward.
Feedback from Yvonne McLean on 22 Feb 2007 I've got to know Alyson through my use of the Centell Better Life Toolkit in my Executive Coaching work. My clients have benefitted immensely from its use - they've gleaned a better insight into how they operate and interract with others. I have found Alyson wonderful to work with - she is very responsive, very technically savvy and is warm and friendly. She always shows a genuine interest in my work and how the BetterLife Toolkit is enhancing that work.
Feedback from Rachell Tamoua on 01 Nov 2006 For the past 3 years Alyson has worked with me as my mentor on the YWCA Future Leaders Programme. I am currently doing 6th form at AGGS. Alyson is someone I feel I am able to trust when I need to talk about family, friends and school issues. I feel it is so important to have somebody you see as a role model helping you through it all. Doing the Questionnaires really helped me in highlighting my strengths and exploring the areas I struggle in so that I could learn what to do to improve them.
Feedback from Brad Mullins on 26 Oct 2006 I have benefited greatly from the Better Life Toolkit workshops with Alyson. I have now become acutely aware of the way I interact with others and how to modify my approach to suit different styles of people. It has built my self-esteem, confidence and very self-empowering and I would wish that everyone could experience Alyson's wonderful guidance, insights and personal coaching.
Feedback from Alison Ryan on 27 Sep 2006 Alyson introduced the Betterlife Toolkits to my staff of 15. They responded positively and enthusiastically, gaining valuable insight into the behaviour of each person in the team. They now understand each others strengths and weaknesses, using the knowledge to work more effectively together. Alyson provided the essential and extra support required. I have no hesitation in recommending Betterlife Toolkits and Alyson's expertise to help any agency or institution where team work is required.
Feedback from Alison Ryan on 27 Sep 2006 Alyson introduced me to the Betterlife toolkit in 2004. She spent many hours mentoring me both personally and on a professional level. It was exciting to learn and understand my own behavioural characteristics and gain increased awareness of how I interacted with my staff. Alyson engages and encourages people with an unassuming, friendly and positive manner. I would not hesitate to recommend her work and commitment.
Feedback from Karina Ankhara on 26 Aug 2006 Alyson's passion and enthusiasm for what she does and her excellent follow up have been most appreciated. It is nice to know that someone else is interested in your progress and has the skills and tools to assist. Thank you, Alyson.
Feedback from Hannah Samuel on 25 Aug 2006 I recently completed 3 of the BetterLife Toolkits to gain a greater understanding of my own personal learning and behavioural styles. The toolkits provided invaluable insight into how I am likely to respond to different stimuli which in turn, has given me increased awareness of my interactions with others. I have no hesitation whatsoever in recommending Alyson and the toolkits to anyone wishing to gain a greater insight into themselves and their personal and professional relationships.
Feedback from Katheren Leitner on 25 Aug 2006 Our company have benefited from the services of Centell and Alyson Keller for the last few years. Alyson always takes the time to ensure you understand and have experienced all the benefits of the tools her company provides. We continue our association with Alyson and Centell because of the great value they add. Their committment to research and design ensures that they are continually evolving and providing clients with leading edge tools.
Feedback from Grant Margison on 24 Aug 2006 Alyson and Centell have provided my consulting business for support for a number of years now. Their behavioural profiles have been very helpful in recruitment, personal coaching and helping teams work well together. The "colours" model is exceptional in that people get it very quickly and form common language that helps them resolve issues, see insights and figure out how to better interact with others. Alyson is very conscientious, and has provided quick and timely support.
Feedback from Hannah Samuel on 23 Aug 2006 I have known Alyson for several years and wouldn't hesitate to recommend her and the BetterLife Toolkits for anyone interested in making their personal and professional interactions with others as effective and enjoyable as possible. Alyson's professional expertise and insight are invaluable and her personal warmth, good humour and calm nature make her a pleasure to be around.
Feedback from Glenn Wheeler on 21 Aug 2006 Our company has known of Alyson & her work for some time and recently employed her services to help our team evaluate, work with and implement a Life Colours workshop. This has helped us immensely to better understand our behavioural characteristics and what ourselves and our clients strengths are so that we can work cooperatively together. This has already shown to be invaluable with Alysons guidance, communication skills and input and would highly recommend her.
Feedback from Kelvin Muggeridge on 21 Aug 2006 With out doubt Alyson's business is for your own personal benifit. Its a business that helps you stop putting square pegs in round holes. I personally guaranteed the systems effectiveness provided the instructions and the conditions of Alysons company are followed exactly. Kelvin Muggeridge Elected September 1979.
