Spend an hour with Denise.
It will change your life.
Denise is a Can-do-ologist. She is a person who sees life through the lens of can. The key to her success — both professionally and personally — comes down to how she sees opportunities that are presented to her, and how she tackles challenges (both welcomed and unwelcomed) that cross her path. She’s a can-doer. She knows that she can tackle anything. And she does.
As with most can-doers, Denise finds joy in empowering others to embrace the power of can like she has. In fact, she’s made it her life’s work to do so. She encourages everyone she meets to stand in their authentic power, realize that they can generate their own happiness, and support leaders and organizations in creating a vibe that attracts can-doers (and retains them!). Denise can’t harbor the can-do mindset for herself only. She has to share it. Well, she can share it, and she does. And in doing so, she’s built a passionate community of can-doers.
Denise is an international bestselling author, professional speaker, and mentor on the power of change. During her tenure as the chief innovation officer of the Filene Research Institute, she led the prestigious i3 (ideas, innovation, implementation) program throughout the United States and Canada. Most recently, Denise served as Chief Operating Officer at the Northwest Credit Union Association. Throughout her professional career, she has embraced (and inspired others to embrace) living with a can-do mindset — which has helped her and the teams she has led get the right things done with enthusiasm.
