About Allana Botley

Working exclusively in the entertainment industry for over 20 years has given me a unique perspective on individuals. Given the opportunity to work with amazingly creative and successful people definitely help to mold my exceptional people skills. It has also contributed to my “do what it takes” mind set and calm under pressure mantra. I have maintained a solid hold on a very shaky industry that has given me numerous transferrable skills to achieve within or outside of the industry. My amazing work ethic and loyalty allowed for me to work directly with one key executive three times within my career. Originally, I was asked to follow him to another corporation and then return years later upon his return because of our incredible report and work styles synchronization. His understanding of my style and intelligence gave him great confidence as I was given heavy duties from creating production schedules, charts, graphs to studio wide documents that are still used currently in the various productions. I have worked professionally in direct and daily contact with executives and offices from VP’s, Presidents, CFO’s and CEO’s of extremely renowned organizations. My experience, demeanor and poise have made it possible for me to interact comfortably and successfully with the highest levels of executives in any given corporation. As a first time HR Manager, I introduced a first time employment application process to the company that had not yet been explored. I also suggested the “exit interview” process for the company, which was somehow overlooked for some time. Additionally, within two months of being hired, I successfully finalized a 401K/Retirement plan with ING Direct for the company and employees that had been on stand still for just about a year. This was done with much research and tenacity and minimal training.
