When I’m in over my head, or I need someone to help clarify and confirm my next steps, I want to talk to Chris Allen. Chris has been a great source of wisdom and encouragement as we’ve built out the leadership and cultural development initiatives within the Kansas City Royals. Chris has challenged me with questions and processes to bring about greater alignment, clarity of purpose, and developmental initiatives. He is a gifted leader and guide. Chris has helped us to increase motivation, overall performance, and engagement within our organization. Chris’ ability to listen with humility and speak with wise counsel makes him a huge gift to any person, group, or organization. I’m a better leader because of my time with Chris.
Matt Marasco
Sr. Director Leadership and Cultural Development, Kansas City Royals
Chris Allen is one of the most talented leaders I’ve ever worked with. He has a deep understanding of how and why people work, and is fantastic at building teams and organizations that are both highly motivated and performance-oriented. I have partnered directly with Chris to design and deliver significant large-scale transformation programs (specifically around organizational/operating mode change, innovation/experimentation and talent/learning), and what I enjoyed most was his ability to get in the trenches and make change happen. He’s a natural storyteller and terrific teacher who has an uncanny ability to say exactly what needs to be said. I have learned a great deal from Chris. His authenticity combined with his focus on results combined with his empathy have been truly inspiring.

Chris provides a lens into a perspective that is rooted in bringing the best out of your TEAM. He has provided insight and knowledge that has, and will continue to transform our organization in a positive way. I LOVE his passion for people, as it is a fire that burns extremely bright and is integrated into both how he lives and leads... Chris is both a leader and friend that I would highly recommend to any organization that is focused on empowering and bringing the best out of their people!
Mike Haynes
President - The Loving Companies – Gastonia, NC
Chris is one of the most humble, dynamic and exciting professional leaders I have ever worked with. His ability to captivate an audience is second to none. His commitment to the belief in empowering and inspiring people is honorable. His understanding of corporate culture and what it takes to not only inspire, but to practically build a strong company/brand based on healthy working relationships is invaluable.
David King
Chief Marketing Officer at A&D Mortgage
Chris has a magnetic personality and a viable vested interest in helping others achieve their potential. Chris' emotional intelligence is off the charts and he is exceptional at helping others peel back the layers of their own obstacles and insecurities to reveal their own best self. Chis was a boss and a peer and a great partner in crime (not really, of course) and I'm better for having worked with him.
Aimee Dodson
National Director of Affiliate Relationships at Movement Mortgage
I have had the opportunity to work with Chris and his team designing and implementing benefit structures at both Elevation and Movement . Chris has the unique ability to see culture and move people towards that goal . In teaching or coaching he leads in a positive way to empower others to believe in the mission of the organization . It has been a real blessing to see that skill set in action.

I have worked with Chris Allen for several years now and have never met a more gifted and talented speaker. He is able to articulate the message better than anyone I know and truly is a positive influence. I would consider him an expert at understanding people, knowing the value of relationships and the different levels of leadership. I am a better person and leader because of Chris.
Jason Stenger

Chris is a dynamic and talented change maker whose effective leadership is absolutely contagious! I've had the pleasure of working with Chris informally and have seen first-hand the powerful culture he has built at Movement Mortgage. Outside of work, he is a positive influencer to all that he meets and someone that you simply want to be around!
Aaron Gray, MBA, CPLC
Facilitator, Coach, and Account Manager at Pro-Active Performance
Chris and I instantly had a connection when I came to Movement in June of last year. We both have a passion for leadership and I have witnessed Chris’s abilities first hand in several situations. Most recently, we invited him to NorCal to host leadership training. We introduced our Leadership Academy to my entire Region and Chris held our attention (100+ attendees) for several hours. He provided some great tools and nuggets we implemented that week. He is a gifted leader and story teller, I always love the time we have together.
Michael Ferreira
Regional Vice President at Guild Mortgage
Chris is an amazing leader. Not only does he have a business mind and incredible intuition when it comes to strategy and execution, but more amazing is Chris' natural ability to see the best in others and inspire people to accomplish more than they themselves ever thought possible. Chris is one of those amazing people that you meet in life and instantly you know he is genuine, overflowing with integrity, and truly smart. I am thrilled to be able to run in the same circles as Chris and look forward to watching a dynamic, inspirational, and phenomenal career unfold.
