Denver, CO (PRWEB) September 11, 2004 -- Millions of viewers tuned in to NBC's hit show 'The Apprentice' last Thursday, including the President and Founder of Denver-based GuruMaker School of Professional Speaking, Harrison Monarth. GuruMaker is a leader in confidential executive speech coaching and presentation training, offering fourteen intensive coaching programs to professionals and executives looking for an edge in business by sharpening their speaking and communication skills. "After the show airs, we always get calls from people that watched contestants on 'The Apprentice' battle for their lives in the boardroom, where they must rely on speaking- and communication skills that'll either save or sink them," says Monarth. "The show makes it clear to many that without the ability to persuasively defend your case or present an idea, you can't win regardless of how brilliant or talented you are otherwise."

GuruMaker's coaching programs offer customized training in:

• Executive Presentation Skills

and more.
