Alyson Van Hooser

If I had to describe Alyson’s session in one word, it would be: perfect. She is a masterclass storyteller who leaves you on the edge of your seat from beginning to end. What impressed me most was her ability to translate empathy into action in a way that is both practical and simple. She doesn’t just inspire you, she challenges you. I left the session inspired to think differently, act differently, and show up differently as a leader.

She’s a rockstar, very relatable and sees through to the real issues that lie below keeping high performing people.

Great insight to learning more about your people and understanding them better to better retain them and build better culture at the workplace.

When someone shares their passion with authenticity and purpose, it has the power to inspire others. And when people are inspired, they begin to believe, engage, and take action. From that action, growth and meaningful results are born. That is exactly what this session sparked within the UHCA community.

Alyson connected with attendees in a way that felt genuine and motivating, while being an absolute professional behind the scenes. I would work with her again without hesitation.

“…we can already tell that 2024 is a year that will be noteworthy. Alyson, part of that is because of the unique leadership skills you have equipped us with during our training sessions. All the feedback received has been positive each time you visit!"

Alyson Van Hooser's keynote at the NASCLA 2023 Annual Conference was nothing short of inspiring. Her personal journey and demonstrated leadership qualities resonated strongly with our audience. Her presentation was a standout moment, leaving attendees motivated and equipped with valuable insights for their own leadership roles. Alyson's ability to connect with the audience was remarkable, making her presentation an unforgettable highlight of the event.

It was great watching the audience from the front and literally watching people on the edge of their seats!

If you’re like me, you want to be “best-in-class” in your industry. Bringing her (Alyson) in was one of the best investments I’ve ever made! We are hitting record highs in our productivity! And not just breaking the previous record, but absolutely blowing past it! Our leaders are communicating better and our team feels that they know and understand the expectations like never before. Because of Alyson’s program, my business is in the best place that it’s ever been! Not only that, we have the tools and process in place to sustain!

Alyson, thank you so much for your keynote! I have heard from and seen many who try to do what you do, but you’re in a league of your own! I was incredibly moved by your story. It set the tone for the entire event and allowed the rest of the speakers to reference your message and link it all together. Thank you for guiding us all on a path to level up!

She was incredible! Her personality, her message, her connection to the crowd was exactly what I had hoped for. I absolutely loved having her at the event. She is the speaker meeting planners dream of. She had the crowd laughing and up out of their seats dancing. Her afternoon breakout was full since so many people loved her keynote message.

Alyson Van Hooser is a ball of fire! By engaging with the audience, she pulls you into her life story and how you can use your own story to connect with others. She has the ability to connect with all generations of life. If we all could keep a piece of Alyson in a jar for the hard days, we would make positive steps in changing the workplace and the world.

"Being in leadership for over 20 years now, I have sat through many leadership training sessions and I have to say this has by far been the best program I have attended. In most leadership training in my past, we had just a speaker reading a predetermined script that actually didn’t have any connection with what was truly needed for us as leaders, they were just professional speakers. This program has taken what we, as leaders, need to hear and learn to make us better leaders."

You two make a great team, the time flew by and you made Women In Propane look like the top-notch organization we want to be. "The Millennial and The Man" hit it out of the park! You addressed relevant issues in business that engaged our diverse audience. Everyone left feeling empowered and excited!

Your presentation was spot on with our "McFamily" and we were equally impressed with how well you showed the relevance to our great brand…

Alyson captivates your attention at word one! She is able to interweave facts and data, personal stories, with entertaining anecdotes that we can all relate to while providing thought-provoking concepts and actionable insights. Highly recommend!

Alyson was extremely well-received by participants, not only in the content and relevance of her remarks, but also in her dynamic and enthusiastic style of delivery. Her passion for the topic, great sense of humor, and authenticity carried the day!

Alyson is one of the most dynamic young speakers, authors, and thought leaders that I've met recently!

"...I believe there was great value in the presentation. I personally think the perspective of generational differences is a huge contributor that is certainly overlooked. I’ve been through hundreds of trainings in my career and not a single one has viewed those generational traits that I can recall. I’ve always focused on personal stories and a person's behavior so I was able to connect to that (part of the) presentation as well."
