The big decisions. The need to grow, stabilise or exit.
The what next, where next. The who next.

But it doesn’t have to feel that way. Sometimes those outside can help with what’s going on inside. They see things from different perspectives. With different experiences.

I’ve got an instinct for leadership and business.

So I use probing questions, perceptive challenge and a considered tenacity. Balanced with wise counsel, reflective deliberation and empathetic support. All to encourage dynamic progress, change and growth.

If you’re ready to go beyond and truly thrive. To see your world through the lens of bright experience, I’m here. We’re here.

Thoughtful leadership. Thriving businesses.

Testimonials

Thrive

Being part of the Vivid Grey Thrive group gives me access to a network of peers who challenge and support me in equal measure. It is great to regularly meet individuals from a diverse range of businesses and organisations, and to gain perspectives that are very different from my own. Taking myself out of my business once a month to be challenged by others and getting access to superb speakers and subject matter experts gives me breathing and thinking space. It is amazing how often conservations in the Group lead to decision making back at base the next day. The Thrive group is a hugely valuable resource that would benefit any business leader.

I have been working with Mike for 4 years now.  The mixture of fantastic speakers in the morning and then work with like minded professional in the afternoon sharing business challenges and ideas is a fantastic combination, all brilliantly held together by Mike who adds his own wealth of experience.  As part of a Senior leadership team within a business, and now being Managing Director, the benefit I have taken personally from sharing the views of others and learning from each other has proved invaluable.  As a business our repeated record success over recent years has been partly due to the fact that our CEO has worked with Mike for many years and put in place procedures, structure and learnings taken from Mike’s support.   We cannot recommend Mike highly enough.

Mike played an invaluable role in professionalising our Board interactions, binding us as a team and ensuring that we held ourselves and each other accountable. Mike acted as a coach / mentor, ran team building sessions, joined us when we relaxed on team trips and really understood our dynamics and where he could effect change with us.

Mike is gentle and yet sharp, probing and kind, insightful and respectful and he played a key role in ensuring that a group of senior functional experts were able to work as a team. What emerged from Mike’s sessions with us was a very personalised set of tools for us to progress with – a shared language, behaviours we all committed to and a shared vision of success.
Bravo!

1:1 Coaching & Mentoring

I had the privilege and benefit of working with Mike for almost two years and can say the experience was transformative in my professional and personal development.

I was somewhat apprehensive ahead of our first session having different experiences of mentoring during my career.

Mike displayed an exception ability to listen, understand my professional and personal goals and challenges, and help articulate them in a way that made complete sense.

Mike’s personalised approach to the sessions enabled for good honest conversations and his expertise and strategic approach were invaluable in me overcoming many real-life challenges / situations.

Mike’s mentoring style was both supportive and challenging (in a good way!) giving me the tools and confidence to deliver in my role.

I would absolutely recommend Mike to anyone seeking a dedicated, inspiring, and personable mentor.
