I had the pleasure of working with Julie Brown for our recent event, and I can't recommend her highly enough! From the moment we began planning, she was incredibly responsive, easy to work with, responding promptly and tailoring the presentation to fit our group’s needs perfectly. On the day of the event, Julie brought an infectious energy that captivated everyone in the room. Her dynamic speaking style kept us engaged and motivated, making complex topics accessible and relatable. It was clear that she had invested time into understanding our audience and the objectives for our session, and that made all the difference. What truly set Julie apart was her commitment to going above and beyond. She took the time to connect with attendees before and after the presentation, creating a lasting impact and fostering meaningful conversations. Our team left feeling inspired and equipped with actionable insights. If you’re looking for a keynote speaker who can energize your audience and create a memorable experience, look no further than Julie Brown.

Julie was referred to our Women in Leadership team at EMD Serono as a potential Keynote Speaker for our inhouse Summit. After being ghosted by another speaker, Julie rebuilt our confidence in humanity that some people do actually follow through- and I'll share the many ways she does that. 1) She brings her authentic self from your first meeting until after an event. 2) She was engaged in the development of our summit agenda, stayed the entire day (which our employees absolutely loved) 3) Shared follow up resources, including her autographed book on networking and 4) sent multiple follow ups post event (including a handwritten letter) expressing how we were a positive experience for her and wanted to maintain this strong connection. Personally, I wish more people behaved with such class and professionalism. She made the process easy, her content (and her presence) was engaging and informative and after leaving the session, I immediately felt empowered to go take action and strengthen my own networks. I highly recommend partnering with Julie and will continue to stay connected with her!

I had the pleasure of working with Julie during the 2024 Energetic Women Conference, as one of the members of the leadership team for the conference. From the moment that I met Julie, I knew that she was going to wow the audience with her great personality and wonderful energy. Julie did a great job showing us how to network our way to greater influence and success. I now understand the importance of my party people of 15, my robust 50 and my circle of 100. Another key nugget that she shared was the philosophy of croissant vs. bagel when approaching people and I was able to utilize that approach immediately while at the conference. The amazing thing was that when I approached the group of people conversing, they immediately referenced croissant vs. bagel, which told me that her topic truly resonated with our attendees. If you're looking for someone with contagious energy and tangible takeaways that can immediately be put to use, I would highly recommend Julie.

Julie Brown was recently a featured speaker at our sold out UMass Lowell Women's Leadership Conference, and she absolutely crushed it! Her energy was off the charts and highly contagious. She gave real world examples and very tangible takeaways. She spoke in the middle of the day and really infused so much energy into the crowd of over 350 attendees. In the post event surveys, many commented on how much they loved her session. I would have her back as many times as I possibly could to speak to so many different constituent groups- from college students to large organizations and their staff! Highly recommend booking her!

Just when you think you know how to network, Julie breaks in with Fresh Prince-style swagger and Kristen Chenowith enthusiasm, dropping stats & hacks like a baller, shot caller, brawler. Seeing her speak at the HOW Design Conference and how she woke up a room of pros—after lunch no less—was like witnessing a miracle. She inspired even those in the back row to seek genuine connections, and she gave everyone IRL practical ways to succeed. Do you have “your list?” Do you walk up to bagels or croissants? Do you know your ‘90s hip-hop jams? Do you know the latest studies on behavioral economics? If not, you need to book Julie. No diggety. No doubt.
