Mitch Harris

Guest And Keynote Speaker


Having the right speaker at your event can single-handedly put it “over the top”. Mr. Mitch Harris, President and Founder of Communication Mastery, is that speaker! Mitch’s varied backgrounds in sales, marketing, public speaking and performing make him the ideal candidate for whatever function it is you are holding. His approach is flexible, combining a charismatic intensity with heartwarming humor.

If you are looking for a high-energy speaker who will get your audience going and leave your guests moved and inspired, Mitch is ideal. He represented the Anthony Robbins organization for close to 2 years and worked as a professional comedian in New York City for over 3 years. He is a master at connecting with and raising the energy level of any audience.

If you are looking for someone who can speak strategically about developing and growing a business, sales and marketing excellence, strategic planning as well as revenue and profit enhancement, Mitch is also ideal. He has over 14 years of direct, front-line experience in entrepreneurial sales, including over 6 years as a full service Financial Advisor. Mitch has also owned and operated his own training company successfully for over 4 years.

And finally, if you are looking for someone who can speak to your people candidly about the keys to thriving directly in the face of setbacks and adversity, Mitch is also the perfect candidate. He has had more than his share of real-life struggles and setbacks, including an abysmal start in sales for over 3 years, making over 300 cold calls a day as a struggling Stockbroker – dealing with massive rejection, poor results and financial hardship, to eventually be the one giving the sales meetings, training other Brokers and taking on the role of Coach and Mentor to many.

Mitch has been both guest and keynote speaker for some of the top organizations in the world, including Century 21, Coldwell Banker,? AT&T, MCI Worldcom, Cablevision, Morgan Stanley Dean Witter, Northwestern Mutual, Oppenheimer & Co., Met Life and ERA Realtors just to name a few.
