About Speaking With Impact™

"Working with Denise through the executive training program has been a true blessing. She has helped me grow in both self-confidence and corporate strategy navigation, enhancing skillsets that demand a seat at the leadership table. I have appreciated the journey we have taken together to get here – asking the hard, internal-facing questions. I always leave our coaching sessions feeling empowered, inspired, and ready to set the world on fire."

"I have worked with Denise for over five years. She is an exceptional communications speaker and coach. She helped prepare me for my most important mainstage presentation to approximately 2,000 participants. Her guidance on delivery and on content creation was masterful."

"Denise’s program transformed my life and my style. I still practice what I learned over 25 years ago!"

"When I left the office long after Leslie Stahl had departed, one of her techs was loading up in the parking lot. He came over to me and said, ‘Wow. Who prepped you?! That was like doing a Reagan interview. My answer was Denise Harrington."

"I am writing to serve as a reference for Denise Harrington and the DMH Consulting Group. We recently selected Denise and her firm through a highly competitive process to provide communications training to an accomplished group of leading scholars in education research. The individuals receiving this communications coaching are themselves highly experienced faculty members with strong reputations for their research contributions and their experience presenting work beyond their classrooms at major conferences and meetings worldwide. Our specific aim was to prepare them to give powerful and persuasive TED‐Type talks in order to deepen the appreciation of policy and thought leaders from other sectors that science and scholarship matter in their lives.”

"Speaking With Impact’s keynote speakers are highly informative and interactive. My team walked away ready, focused, and inspired."

"Denise was an amazing trainer. She kept everyone energized and excited about learning better presentation skills. It is very apparent that she is extremely knowledgeable in her field and I'm thankful to have had the opportunity to participate in this session."

"Very effective. Breaking down the non verbal aspect of presenting effectively is a great skill to learn. Denise and Nia you are experts here. Your expertise helped greatly on this dimension as well as anchoring prompts vs. text linked to the target system. Very effective."

"Effective and enlightening. Lots to learn in a two-day class, but time managed very well."

"Loved the Speakers Target System - have already used it to develop other presentations."
