PROGRAM DESCRIPTION

In a world dominated by distractions, A.I. disruption, and relentless uncertainty our ability to be present and drive business growth is tested every single day. With two decades of experience alongside NBA MVPs like Steph Curry and Joel Embiid, Mike understands the vital role of presence in peak performance and leadership. This insight was profoundly deepened during the horrific withdrawal symptoms of an anti-depressant medication, which disrupted his ability to focus and work effectively. So he went on a mission to reclaim the present moment with counter-cultural approaches, rigorous research, and massive personal growth.

Through this experience, he built a simple methodology that merges the mindsets of basketball’s elite with Eastern philosophy to navigate today’s complex era. At first glance, these might seem like worlds apart, but they both prioritize presence to optimize performance, elevate psychology, and impact people.

This keynote offers a practical toolkit to help leaders navigate modern challenges, emphasizing that personal and professional success is not about the hours worked but the quality of presence brought to each moment. Through a research-backed, inspiring storytelling approach, attendees will learn how to thrive amidst today’s demands by embracing the mindset of an elite athlete and the heart of a mindful leader.
