Michael takes inspiration from these words of Oliver Wendell Holmes, “I would not give a fig for the simplicity this side of complexity, but I would give my life for the simplicity on the other side of complexity.” Michael has stopped coaching from being impractical, inaccessible and unrealistic, and shows how being more coach-like can be an everyday, powerful leadership behaviour.

He’s equally comfortable in front of a group of 20 or a crowd of 10,000.
