Business Keynote Speaker

Denise really took the time to understand our organization and our challenges. Her presentation was insightful and included many actionable tips for our teams.

Denise delivered an outstanding presentation to the 1000 participants to the STIMA Congress in Brussels. She translated her vision on what great brands do into ready-to-use tools and made her methodology very actionable.

One of the best experts in this domain.  Her authentic communication style and connection with the audience was immediate and she captivated their attention for the entire duration of her presentation.

What you said was so practical, so implementable – not blue sky, rather a blue print on what to do.

“You were our highest rated speaker as people loved the handouts, the stories and the passion with which you spoke.”

Our goal for conferences and events is to ‘engage, enlighten and entertain,’ and boy, did Denise deliver on all three!

“You really are helping us get to the next level as a corporation and I’m excited for that and deeply appreciative.”

“I appreciate all the work you put into your keynote. It was an amazing fit with our strategy and such a timely message.”

“Denise hit the ground running and never let up.”

“You were the highlight of the day!  All the feedback that I’ve heard can be summed up in one word: PERFECT! Right message, right time and very well delivered.”

Denise captured the attention of the audience with her empathy, deep knowledge of the subject and intense communication.

Wow – you were amazing!!  Such a practical and powerful message and presentation.

You took the time to make connections back to our Coaches day-to-day realities and everyone is still talking about how valuable (and fun!) it was.

World class. Even over Zoom you could see Denise’s expertise and feel her passion for the work of building great brands.

Denise is a natural giver in her talks – she shares rich content generously, with humor and heart.

Denise is awesome on stage – a real dynamic presence.

A perspective we usually don’t hear but desperately need to.

Her authentic communication style and connection with the audience was immediate.

She ranks among the very best speakers I’ve encountered.

The best speaker ever…Thank you for opening our eyes!

Thank you for a great keynote to close our event – It was a huge hit!

Denise’s presentation was thought-provoking, powerful, and challenged our sales team to think and understand the secrets behind great brands.

Thought provoking and focused.  I highly recommend Denise to anyone who wants to better understand the value of great brands and how they can be cultivated in any organizational setting.

Denise’s incredible pre-work, on behalf of her audience, enabled her to hook the attendees from the start of the session and keep us focused with rapt attention throughout.

Your talk provided us with a framework as to how to operationalize our brand to achieve our Billion Dollar vision!

Nothing short of amazing in front of a very passionate and outspoken audience.  She was fabulous!

Best speaker of the day… a fresh perspective.

You were truly a hit with our clients from top travel companies…and our offices and staff really took it to heart and truly enjoyed your presentations and workshops.

Your presentation was engaging, insightful and added great value to our event.

Your presentation was superb and provided a great depth of valuable insights.  Your charismatic and knowledgeable way of providing information made the session that much more enjoyable.

Denise’s keynote took our customer summit to new heights. She did her research, hit all of the points we’d discussed, and used provocative insights and examples. Her talk was inspiring and informative – worth every penny!

Our attendees, who are owners of fast casual restaurants, learned a lot about social marketing from Denise. She’s a dynamic and engaging speaker and really tailored her presentations to our audience. Attendees left fired up!

We were privileged to have Denise serve as a panel member for our Brand Strategy breakouts. Her experience and insights were amazing and helped to make the conference a huge success. She is brilliant and entertaining – able to point out a unique twist or opportunity on what might otherwise be a very clinical case analysis.

Many thanks to you for your contribution to Dine America, I thought your talk was informative, interesting, and entertaining. I received a lot of compliments, and hope you did too!

Denise Yohn gave a stimulating talk to my Brand Management class at UCSD’s Rady School of Management. Students had great feedback about her practical techniques for clarifying brand essence and enjoyed learning that successful brands usually operate in transcendent emotional space. We hope to welcome her back again soon!

Denise outlined a detailed roadmap for retailers for building their brands.   In today’s intensively competitive retailing environment, the various concepts such as the brand platform and tools such as the brand touchpoint wheel that Denise covered in her presentation represent timely and important to retailers, big and small.

Denise is awesome onstage – a real dynamic presence.  She brought insightful comments and a lot of energy to the session.

We wanted someone who could stretch our thinking. The attendees were blown away by her presentation. We were very pleased with the depth of her experience and her ability to easily communicate that to a broad audience base.
