My favorite thing in the world is to help people become mindful of themselves and their surroundings, challenge the way they believe things “should” be done, and coach them to evolve into the best versions of themselves.

Mike knows how to read a room and carry a strategy session like few can, and that makes everyone’s work that much easier. I strongly recommend Mike.

My work varies, but mostly focuses on helping you think differently so you can discover better ways of working, collaborating, and leading meaningful change. I do this through:
» Coaching sessions to help you explore new ideas and practices
» Workshops and programs to help you learn, adapt, and evolve
» Collaboration and partnership to solve hard problems, together
Mike’s ability to create a focused and collaborative environment resulted in a strategy session that produced more than I could have hoped for.

A bit more about how I work
I don’t believe in traditional thinking, so I prefer to pitch myself as a non-traditional person.
I believe in collaboration. Co-creation. I believe in forming a team of the best, brightest people, with a shared intention, and working together in harmony to deliver a specific outcome.
It does not matter who employs whom, nor does it matter what titles people hold nor what their resume is made of.
What matters is shared intent. Shared desire. Shared willingness to roll up the sleeves and get shit done. aka attitude and hustle, blended with humility and decency.
I work with people who stand out from the crowd, so we can create projects that mirror bits of our reflection. I work with those who believe in themselves and their purpose, and strive to be better today than they were yesterday. You may not entirely know this about yourself, but you certainly exude it and live it.
As such, I’m always looking for the next exploratory conversation and opportunity; for the chance to chat with someone and learn who they are, what drives them, and why they do what they do.

Mike put together a great day of programming and delivered an excellent presentation to help our sales people become leaders in their space.
