Welcome to Victor Allen
Real Help for Real Life
​​
Helping you navigate leadership, relationships, and life's crossroads with clarity, calm and care.
With over 30 years’ experience supporting schools, leaders, and individuals, I help people think clearly, communicate well, and stay steady under pressure. I also deliver annual keynote input for the Independent Schools Association (ISA) for newly appointed Headteachers, supporting leaders as they step into the realities of headship.
My work is grounded in lived experience rather than programmes or quick fixes, focusing on practical guidance that helps people make good decisions, build constructive relationships, and create calm, consistent cultures where others can do their best work.
I’ve learned that no two journeys are the same — but certain truths always help us find our way.
​
Through practical advice and real-world experience, I help you lead more effectively, build stronger connections, and navigate life’s challenges with calm and clarity.
​
Whether you’re looking for personal support, leadership insight, or relationship guidance, you’ll find real-world help here — grounded in experience and focused on helping you take your next steps.

“Much of my work now sits under something I call the
Mindful Wellbeing Project –
Practical guidance for staying mentally secure and steady under pressure, in school leadership, work, and family life.”

Victor leaves no stone unturned in his sessions, he makes you feel like you are talking to an enlightened spirit that wants you to become just as enlightened in whatever context it is you are working in.
For me he improved my Teaching Practice by helping me understand educational psychology with respect to students brain development, teaching techniques BUT MOST IMPORTANTLY MANAGING STUDENT BEHAVIOUR. He just makes everything so easy to understand and implement. He also helped me challenge systems and change them within a hierarchy where I am at the bottom – A classroom teacher. He also improved my communication and relationship building skills by helping me understand myself better.
You should be so lucky if you get the chance to work with him. Thank you Victor I am truly grateful!
