Allyson Stewart-Allen: Leadership Lessons Across Borders

In this episode of Fall Forward, international business expert and author Allyson Stewart-Allen unpacks why failure isn’t just inevitable in leadership and marketing, it's essential.

From global expansion gone wrong to cross-cultural misunderstandings, Allyson makes a compelling case for embracing failure as a path to growth, clarity, and resilience.

We explore how cultural assumptions shape leadership styles, why hiring for attitude beats hiring for skills, and how leaders can navigate the complexities of international business with curiosity and care. Allyson shares insights on communication differences between the UK and US, the impact of geopolitical shifts, and the daily practices that keep leaders grounded in uncertain times.

This conversation will challenge how you think about leadership, culture, and the future of marketing in an AI-driven world.

Trust us, you’ll want to hear this one.
