Bio
Angela Tsai
I had the opportunity to work with Isabelle for several months in an engagement to help her and her team to uplift the digital marketing strategy at EIFA – the international school where she is both founder & executive head. Isabelle’s passion for bilingual education and the benefits of the right environment at all levels of child development were apparent from when I first met her. She also had a strong forward-looking vision for the growth of the school through marketing strategy and digital visibility and was seeking a partner to help realise it, which was an exciting challenge our team to take on. As a client, Isabelle was both open and collaborative, she cared strongly about results and remained involved throughout the process, reviewing data points carefully - which made it easy for us to work together and discuss progress constructively. I would very much recommend Isabelle both as a client and someone passionate about child development, and would value to work together again.

I have worked with and for Isabelle in two different capacities, the first when I was working forgot Anthony Millard Consulting and then whilst working for the school directly. Both experiences were great! As an executive search consultant, it was always easy to work with Isabelle on her recruitment needs, they were clear and concise and there was always an open channel of communication when required and she used my agency as a true partner which is always refreshing. As a line manager the sense of collaboration, trust and transparency continued making it a pleasure to work at the school on a challenging but stimulating project. Isabelle is a superb leader, manager and strategist. She is a passionate, intelligent and caring school leader who is rightly proud of all her achievements at EIFA.
