CULTIVATING EMOTIONAL PROFESSIONALISM… TOGETHER
Purpose-driven organizations thrive when leadership skills permeate throughout teams, not just among designated leaders. My approach transforms how teams connect, communicate and collaborate by addressing the fundamental human needs for connection that drive both wellbeing and performance.
Through experiential workshops in collaborative leadership and facilitation, I equip your entire team with practical social and emotional intelligence tools that prevent burnout, dissolve silos, and build cultures where innovation naturally emerges. Whether through the Leading Together program focused on emotionally intelligent collaboration or Better Conversations designed to build facilitation confidence, your team will experience what's possible when genuine connection becomes part of your organisational DNA.
Move beyond tokenistic wellbeing initiatives and formulaic training—discover how developing human centred leadership capacity across your entire team creates sustainable cultures where both people and purpose flourish together.

LEADING TOGETHER
Formulaic leadership trainings and tokenistic wellbeing events do not build a culture of thriving social wellbeing. A culture where emotionally intelligent collaboration drives innovation and resilience in the face of complex challenges can simultaneously boost individual wellbeing against the prevailing tide of burnout and isolation.
Cultivating this genuine, professional togetherness demands a highly practical and meaningful approach. This collaborative leadership experience gives teams a tangible experience of thriving collaboration and equips your entire team with a social and emotional intelligence leadership toolbox and a common language for navigating complex challenges and building your teams social wellbeing... together.

BETTER CONVERSATIONS
Facilitation is rapidly becoming a highly sought after skillset in modern leaders. Whether your team are facilitating training or learning experiences, stakeholder engagement meetings, or you simply want your managers to mine the collective wisdom of their teams through collaborative team meetings… the ability to engage groups in honest dialogue is a crucial modern leadership tool.
Instead of PowerPoint presentations and lectures, this immersive, experiential workshop series gives teams to the confidence to cultivate the rock-solid psychological safety and genuine engagement required for rich, meaningful collaborative conversations back in boardrooms, lunchrooms and zoom rooms.

KEYNOTES
An engaging keynote is an opportunity to bring your entire team onto the same page, with some common language around a difficult topic.
‘Thriving together’, is an inspiring exploration of our human needs for connection and the simple actions we can take every day to build stronger, richer, more connected communities.
‘Healthy Masculinities at Work’, is based on 10 years leading my social enterprise ‘Good Blokes Co’. It creates a shared understanding of the impact of our culture on men’s wellbeing and behaviour and outlines simple steps for more productive conversations. It moves the conversation towards action and accountability so that we can all take practical steps in building a thriving collaborative culture.

“Mike’s FACILITATION TRAINING was nothing short of inspirational. There was plethora of skills introduced and a really accessible framework taught. I feel well equipped to support men and boys in my community.”
Lachlan Howarth, General Manager, Sneakers and Jeans
“It was a fantastic talk. I could tell how engaged my staff were, and I’m excited for the healthy conversation to be on-going within our business. There has already been a shift in the way my senior guys are now talking to one another and their staff.”
Julian Strudwick, Group Human Resources manager, Wave International
“The team really enjoyed the talk. I had one manager tell me it was timely for him as he needs to check himself and his communication as he knows he is getting edgy. I’ve spoken to about 10 people and all provided positive commentary. I’ve also had 6 direct emails thanking me for the session, noting it was ‘useful’, ‘timely’ and ‘amazing’. Thanks again.”
