“Steve was a key part of Walking the Talk from day one, shaping our brand and marketing strategy as Head of Marketing. His work helped define our positioning in a competitive space.
He drove a high-performing digital marketing approach, using data-driven strategies and new technologies. His focus on SEO pushed our core keywords to #1 on Google, significantly increasing qualified traffic and leads.
Steve also built strong, collaborative relationships across the business. His creative input, guidance, and ability to bring out the best in others helped shape both our brand and our culture.
Over eight years, Steve helped transform Walking the Talk from a startup into a respected global brand. I recommend him wholeheartedly for any senior marketing or leadership position.”
— Amanda Fajak, CEO / Global Culture Practice Lead
“I worked very closely with Steve for several years and thoroughly enjoyed having him as a thought partner. Steve led our marketing efforts and helped grow the impact of our work on our client community.
Steve is able to lead work independently but he also excels in a team environment. He is someone I could trust 100% because I knew he kept his word and would deliver everything that was on his plate.
His work ethics were second to none and his commitment showed in his daily work. Steve had a big impact on the company and on his colleagues, myself included.”
— Jerome Parisse-Brassens, Executive Director
“Steve arrived at Walking the Talk, the consulting company I founded, when we were just starting to grow globally, and did a fantastic job over 8 years at helping us build a global brand, with a shared look and feel and a strong online presence.
In the process he led a change of logo and brand positioning, built a new website, and later oversaw a change of identity after we were acquired by a larger company.
He is a master at SEO and dramatically increased the amount of unsolicited enquires we received from our website. He is strategic in his thinking, provides substance (rather than just sizzle) and I highly recommend him as a marketing leader.”
— Carolyn Taylor, Founder & CEO
“Steve is a great all-round marketing professional. He's strategic and outcome-focused, but he's also happy to roll up his sleeves and do all the execution. He's a strong business partner, working hard to understand the client's needs so that he can tailor his approach to get the best results.
Highlights of his work with me include a strategic rebranding exercise that also included repositioning all of our marketing collateral to be more business driven, a complete rebuild of our website, a series of marketing webinars to reach more clients and excellent work on our SEO which massively increased the visibility of our website and generated a significant number of business leads.”
— Liz Stanley PhD, Executive Director
“I am happy to recommend Steve to anyone for the roles of Marketing lead/Director, Brand Lead and Growth Lead. Steve is sharp, wants the company to win, and combines creativity with a data-driven mindset and a healthy portion of stubbornness and entrepreneurship.
At Talk360 he played a crucial role in our full rebranding in 2016, couldnt have done it without him.”
— Hans Osnabrugge, CEO
