Through keynotes, workshops, and custom trainings, he commands every room with passion and frameworks that activate leadership culture and drive execution.

Michael’s keynotes go beyond inspiration, they install operating systems leaders can use the very next day.
Each topic fuses real-world operator experience with proprietary frameworks, backed by data on the challenges leaders face most.
These are three of his most requested sessions:
Compass OS: Scale Beyond the Founder
Founders eventually outgrow hustle. Compass OS installs the systems, rhythms, and accountability that move organizations from dependence on the founder to alignment across leaders. With 80% of franchisors reporting that growth is constrained by labor shortages (Frandata), this keynote shows how to scale sustainably, with clarity, culture, and execution built into the operating system.
Making Strategic Decisions Under Pressure
When stakes rise, hesitation costs growth. In this keynote, Michael equips leaders with a decision-making system that blends core values, real-time data, and conviction to cut through complexity. With 61% of executives admitting poor decision-making is a major issue (McKinsey), this session shows how to build leaders who move faster, with greater purpose, and with confidence under pressure.
Most teams are running well below capacity. In this keynote, Michael shows leaders how to unlock hidden energy by sharpening focus and embedding execution rhythms that sustain momentum. With 72% of leaders citing execution as their #1 weakness (Harvard Business Review) & burnout at soaring, this session equips leaders to break through plateaus and build teams that perform at their full power.
