“Mike’s advice has immediately made me more compelling, more motivational, more relatable, and more myself.”
Over the years, I have consistently gone back to Mike to test out talks, from opening punch to storyline fidelity to the ‘mike drop’ closing, so I could be the truest version of me and create that critical emotional connection with my audiences.

Why do I need a Keynote Director?
A great public speaking coach can help you get comfortable. But only a Keynote Director can help you become a legend.
You already know the basics. So why waste your time with another course, public speaking coach, or group program that’s focused on “best practices”?
It’s time to get specific, clear direction on how to expand your range so you can deliver a transformational talk. (The kind people won’t shut up about.)
