WHAT I DO: I help leaders lead more effectively by using sound social science and focusing on self first WHO I WORK WITH: I help leaders who are changing who they are, how they lead, and the results they desire. I work directly with practicing leaders in small coaching cohorts and I work with HR/OD/TD professionals in small- and medium-sized enterprises to custom design proprietary leader development assessments (360 degree surveys)I prefer to work with thoughtful leaders who are looking for a challenge and are ready to do the hard work of looking at themselves. I tend to attract natural learners who value courage and curiosity over comfort and safety.WHAT MY CLIENTS SAY:+ “Mike understands the science behind effective leadership, but he doesn't live in the ivory tower.”+ ”Before creating a plan for growth, Mike made sure to listen to my story and ask lots of questions” + “Mike's coaching pushes past the superficial.
