Description

Dr Alison Edgar MBE is a transformational business speaker and author who has spent over three decades leading and excelling across global organisations. Her corporate career placed her inside a company that once dominated its industry worldwide, where she witnessed firsthand how resisting change in emerging markets triggered a cataclysmic decline.

This experience shaped her mission to understand what drives high-performing teams and future-ready leaders — and how organisations can build cultures where people take ownership, accountability, and deliver exceptional results.

Awarded an MBE in 2020 and an Honorary Doctorate of Education in 2024, Alison is recognised for her contribution to learning and development. Her work has taken her inside major global brands, including Amazon, Adobe, CBRE, LVMH, Porsche, and British Airways, where she helps teams navigate change, strengthen collaboration, and raise performance standards at every level.

Alison is the author of two international bestsellers, both widely used across organisations to develop confidence, resilience, and professional impact.

Known for her energy, humour, relatability, and down-to-earth storytelling, Alison empowers audiences to think differently, show up with purpose, and unlock the performance potential within themselves and their teams.

Working with Alison and her team was seamless. Alison is full of energy and just ‘gets it’ around business elements. We focused on performance culture and bringing our people in to a growth mindset and Alison immediately understood what we were trying to achieve and the content of her presentation was customised to fit. She also went the additional mile in terms of refining the proposal and kindly doing a run through of the presentation in advance and was open to working collaboratively with us to make sure it truly fit our needs. Alison is an inspiration and an absolute please to work with.

Alison delivered a well-structured and thoughtfully prepared keynote at our recent International Sales Meeting in Portugal. In her preparation she was keen to understand the needs of our business and the challenges our team faces in order to create an impactful session. Her insights on intrapreneurship really resonated with the audience and her core messages aligned well with our meeting objectives. Her session provided valuable takeaways about business, teamwork, communication and time management.

Alison is incredibly organised and professional and her boundless energy is infectious. She took a lot of time and care to ensure that her Keynote matched our requirements - meeting with us twice and going through the presentation, in detail, prior to our event. As a result her keynote hit home, was really well received by the audience and the team felt that we really knew her before we actually met her in person. I would thoroughly recommend Alison and thank her for meeting - and exceeding - our expectations.

We were absolutely delighted to have Alison join us as a guest speaker at our recent company event. From the very beginning, she demonstrated a high level of professionalism—taking the time to meet with us beforehand to fully understand our goals and ensure her content was tailored to our needs. During the event, she delivered a presentation that was both engaging and highly relevant to our business. Her energy, clarity, and insight really resonated with our team, making her session one of the most talked-about parts of the day. The feedback from attendees was overwhelmingly positive, with many highlighting her as a standout of the event. We couldn’t have asked for a better speaker and wouldn’t hesitate to work with her again in the future.
