What Clients Say

Kim Salm

I wanted to let you know that after my coaching sessions with you I have been able to focus my talks around a clear objective, project my voice with passionate and sincere intonation, and speak persuasively around the audience’s agenda vs. mine........... I can honestly say that I’ve learned a whole new approach to making persuasive presentations. Thank you very much!

Jill F. Torke

In my efforts to improve professionally I felt it necessary to seek out a speaking coach. What I found in Harrison was a passionate, enthusiastic instructor. He focused on my individual strengths and was able to really bring out the best in my speaking ability. Over the course of one short weekend, I was able to overcome my anxiety and fear of public speaking and for that I thank you!

The seminar served as an unexpected team building exercise, as well as a confidence booster for our less experienced staff and a validation tool for our more seasoned communicators. Everyone who attended the seminar walked away with some new techniques and a better understanding for how they should effectively deliver our message to the public. I would suggest GuruMaker to any group, big or small, the seminar was worth every penny!!

Prof. Ariel Libertun

Harrison Monarth’s workshop on effective communications was a great success among the graduate students of our program. It is actually noticeable the immediate impact of the workshop in the students’ improved and richer ways of expressing themselves.

Harrison is an excellent coach and trainer. I took a 3-day one-on-one re presentations and executive presence. It was simply the best training experience I ever had. I refer back to the training for every presentation I give and the results are clearly showing.

Larry Tracy is one of the most articulate advocates I've ever seen operate on the platform. He's crisp and clear, his logic and thinking first-rate. As a speech coach myself, I continue to learn from him.

You not only trained twenty-two people how to speak convincingly in some fairly hostile situations, but in two cases your training actually changed personalities.
