What people
say about Scott

“Working with Cleveland Clinic cardiac surgeons, Scott Allen has helped our world-class surgeons become world-class speakers.

— Marc Gillinov, MD, Chair-Department of Thoracic & Cardiovascular Surgery, Cleveland Clinic

“I find Scott informative, engaging, and entertaining – a rare mix and blend of three important elements to great speakers. He is someone who pushes the audience to think deeply, to challenge their assumptions, and ultimately to take action. I highly recommend Scott.

— Brian Fishel, Chief Human Resources Officer, Key Bank

“I engaged Scott to present at a large 200-person conference. He presented himself as high-energy and engaging, and he did not disappoint! We decided to place his topic at the front of the lineup. He came in with his fast-paced, fun and varied style and he had the entire room hooked in minutes - and kept the room on their toes for his entire presentation. The survey feedback from everybody was tremendous and he was the highlight of the two-day conference.”

— Michele Ungar, Director of CRM Process, Progressive

“Scott Allen is an amazing leadership trainer and facilitator. I have been fortunate to work with Scott for several years in my role as Manager of Learning Programs for the Women’s Leadership Institute of the YWCA. He has provided training sessions on subjects such as Immunity to Change and Negotiation Strategies for Women. Scott has consistently been one of the highest-rated facilitators in this program. He has a great presence and ability to connect with his audience. His presentation and facilitation skills are second to none. I recommend Scott Allen with the highest regard.”

— Heather Steranka-Petit, MA, Certified Diversity Professional, Manager of Learning Programs, YWCA Greater Cleveland

“Scott first met with me to understand ‘what makes me tick’ and helped me design the presentation with passion and meaning. During practice, he identified my strengths and areas of improvement, providing practical actions to improve the delivery of the content. I would never imagine feeling confident presenting in front of 600 people!!”

— Silvia Perez Protto, MD, Medical Director, End of Life Center, Cleveland Clinic

“Scott is an engaging presenter who is masterful in meeting his audiences where they are.  Whether he’s speaking to a CEO or an undergraduate student, his approach and style allow you to leave a session with an understanding of the subject matter that makes it relevant, memorable, and actionable.  For Vocon, he has been one of our most trusted and valuable partners in the development of our professional team members.”

— Vocon, Managing Director - New York

“Scott provided guidance on how to craft an impactful presentation and gave me specific feedback that allowed me to expand my comfort and skill in delivering an interactive session.”

— Kendalle Cobb, MD, Lead, Differentiated Lifetime Care at Cleveland Clinic

“Scott helped me design, edit, and polish one of my most important presentations to a large audience. His insight into planning the goal and maximizing the pattern and the outcomes of the talk lead to a presentation that resonated with the ballroom. You know it worked when many have asked if I had help with the talk and for their contact info! Of course, I have used his services again for another large presentation and again . . . so helpful.”

— Mary R. Rensel, MD, FAAN, Director of Pediatric Multiple Sclerosis and Wellness at the Mellen Center of the Cleveland Clinic
