Dennis' Keynotes

Mindful Performance: Invest in Feeling and Performing at Your Best! ™

When action is strategically informed by a mindful, intentional focus, you and your organization are better able to cut through the noise and clutter to enjoy peak performance. Mindful Performance (MP) makes it possible to find the calm in the chaos. When leadership and employees reduce their stress levels and are healthier and happier, this directly impacts the bottom line of the organization. We call this the “return on mindfulness” (ROM).

“An inspiring and meaningful program on every level with a solid message. Absolute professionalism with both motivating and pragmatic ideas to implement. My team of executives could not wait to have Dennis return for more!”

-Craig Eister, SVP, InterContinental Hotels Group (IHG) 

“Dennis has been a tremendous asset to our customers and their employees. Stress at the workplace is a given, and employees are hungry for effective, practical ways to bring a calm, mindful presence into the work they do every day. Dennis brings a simple applicable approach to empower employees to tap into their resilience, and we feel fortunate to be able to partner with him!”

-Julie Sharp, Account Executive, FEI Health

“Angela and Dennis Buttimer are by far the single best example of “walking the talk” that I have ever encountered, in both my former career in Executive Development and in my current career as Founder and General Manager of a real estate brokerage business. They’re a great fit with our values of living intentionally, creating a purposeful life, and being learning based. Their annual visioning and planning session with my group has been phenomenal. I recommend them without reservation!”

He was consistently one of the most popular speakers that we had, combining his quick wit and sense of humor, his in-depth knowledge of his subject, and his genuine care and concern for each person in the room. While I am currently not in a position where I hire speakers, I would certainly look to him again if the opportunity came along!”

Jeanie Robertson, MS, Formerly HR Manager, William Patterson University

“Dennis facilitated three sessions on the topic of Achieving Mindful Performance and each session had more participants than the one before it. It was obvious from not only those employees that told us but by word of mouth the event was a success and the participants are hungry for more. Dennis was able to share and relate to all who attended whether it was in person or via Zoom. Just in his presence alone, Dennis provided a safe place for each participant that was meaningful and uplifting and non-judgmental. In the days that followed the sessions I had participants share with me how they are using the tips they learned. Now that is priceless!”
