Mike Lord Email and Phone Number

The past couple of years, after finishing my book, Trails Best Traveled, I've had the opportunity to help develop a new territory for Cross Country Mortgage in the beautiful area of the Florida panhandle known as 30A. Our team focused on developing strong personal connections along with exceptional service and are now flourishing in the community. Though satisfying accomplishing a new goal, my heart has always been with Integrus Leadership. Recently the opportunity to rejoin the team presented itself and I am excited to be back with a group of incredible influencers. Our goal is to help leaders grow in credibility and influence for greater Kingdom impact. We do that through the Integrus 360 profile that highlights an individual's behavioral strengths as well as their constraints. It is an amazingly accurate tool that is both predictive and prescriptive. By analyzing and then talking through the data, we create an effective game plan that offers practical tools for more effective and dynamic impact.I love that I get the opportunity to help equip and encourage the leaders who impact the lives of so many.

As a coach and scout, the skill of identifying, recruiting, and then developing talent is a cornerstone of any successful program. Another crucial element for sustained success is the quality of the organization. There must be vision, mission, support, and opportunity. What helped set me apart with the Red Sox was not my talent, but the fact that I was supported whenever I needed to get somewhere to see players. There was always a yes to new territories, clinics, showcases or whatever was needed to do my job. There was also name recognition. It wasn't Mike Lord that showed up at a field, it was "hey the Red Sox are here!Cross Country Mortgage is the same type of team in a different arena. Incredible leadership, massive financial backing and a vast infrastructure that makes sure loans get processed and funded when others may not be able to. My opportunity is to not only connect potential clients with Cross Country, but proactively pursue up and coming real estate brokers who have yet to establish long term relationships with a lender. There are many talented players in sports and business. The separator for those who excel for the long haul is an old scouting term.... "makeup". It's the extra tool that sets apart the best of the best. It's the grind through adversity, the ability to push through failures, the ones who connect with others, who have a high likeability factor. They are the ones who lift others when they are around. That is who I am after. I'm back out on the road scouting, looking for those special players.I've had a good run and was thinking of letting the bullpen finish the game, head down to the beach and watch the sunset every day, but I realized I have a few more good innings left! Recently on one of my old players offered me this opportunity. I decided I'd rather finish the game and pitch all nine. Who knows what could happen in these last few innings! Like the great Yogi Berra once said "it ain't over till it's over"...

I am a performance strategist. I analyze personal and team behaviors, prescribe process based on profile data and then implement specifics systems and strategies that create better outcomes. What we do is based on Hebrews 12:1 where we are challenged to "throw off " that which so easily entangles us. We all have strengths, and we want to leverage those, but what are the one or two things that trip us up and keep us from fulling our highest and best? The goal is to be become UNHINDERED...

Responsible for growth and development of athletic program through fundraising for facilities, as well as increase community awareness through camps, clinics, and club sports.

Managed and developed international territory in order to identify and evaluate baseball prospects with the goal of signing potential major league players.

Had the opportunity to throw batting practice each day for the Padres for many years. San Diego is an incredible baseball town. Over the years I was able to develop many great friendships with players, staff and coaches. I loved the opportunity to volunteer at youth camps and clinics, as well as speak at civic events. This also led to many additional friendships I still enjoy today. San Diego will always be one of my career "highlights" and a very special time of my life.
