Sample Endorsement

Charlotte Avery, Member, Board of Directors for The International Coalition of Girls’ Schools (ICGS) – Headmistress

St Mary’s School, Cambridge, UK
“Dr Stephen Holmes presented a hugely impressive data-driven workshop at the ICGS conference in Cleveland Ohio in June, attended by heads of school and marketing managers from girls’ schools from the USA, Canada, Australia, New Zealand and the UK. His messages were of absolute and vital relevance across these educational jurisdictions. Stephen’s years of professional and unique practice as regards placing reputation in a highly nuanced framework of marketing were generously shared in a compelling yet compressed delivery of radical marketing and reputational strategy. He rightly had many of queuing to engage him for further bespoke work in our schools.”
