When it comes to speaking, the stakes are high and so is the opportunity. I equip visionary leaders to communicate boldly, lead decisively, and influence with gravitas, especially under pressure. Through evidence-based consulting, training, and keynotes, I transform how executives, entrepreneurs, and business owners communicate to maximize ROI and drive measurable business results. I'm the author of the #1 international bestseller Remarkable Speaking: A Framework to Embody Your Voice and Your Vision®, which is based on my proprietary Remarkable Framework that rewires how you communicate so you can lead with power and impact. Grounded in behavioral science, storytelling, and executive strategy, it isn't linear learning; it's transformational embodiment at the leadership level. I've trained 1,000+ professionals across five continents, from global enterprises and the Fortune 100/500 to SMBs and start-ups.

Remarkable Speaking is the difference between hoping your message lands and knowing it will.

Dr. Julie Donley helps leaders stay calm under pressure, reduce workplace stress, and lead more effectively by understanding human behavior. With more than 30 years of experience in behavioral health, executive nursing leadership, and developing leaders who know how to engage, influence, and get results through people, she brings a rare depth of insight into why people behave the way they do, and what great leaders can do about it. Her career began in psychiatric nursing, where she worked with people in emotional crisis. There she learned that human behavior isn’t logical; it’s emotional. And emotional reactions, unmanaged, are what cause conflict, miscommunication, disengagement, and toxic work environments. Later, as a Director of Nursing in behavioral health, she led teams through rapid change, staffing challenges, and organizational restructuring—real-world pressure that tested every leadership principle she thought she knew. It was there she developed her belief that leadership isn’t about authority; it’s about emotional mastery and relationship intelligence. Today, Dr. Donley coaches executives and leadership teams across industries, helping them lead with emotional intelligence, build healthy team dynamics, and eliminate the friction that slows performance and damages culture. She is also a dynamic keynote speaker known for delivering content with clarity, energy, and substance, blending real stories with practical strategies leaders can use immediately. She is the author of the bestselling book Does Change Have to Be So Hard? and Leading at the Speed of People, a Global Book Award finalist. She is also the creator of the CARE Leadership Model™, a practical framework based on Communication, Appreciation, Respect, and Empathy. Her insights have been featured in Business Insider, MSN, PR News, Authority Magazine, Minority Business Entrepreneur, HR Revolution and other media outlets. Known for her clarity and real-world wisdom, Dr. Donley offers expert commentary on emotional intelligence at work, leadership mindset, psychological safety, change leadership, conflict resolution, communication, and stress in leadership.
