Mike Cole

Mike speaks about evolving a successful business that’s as unique as you are – and that you love to run.

He strongly believes that no-one needs to squeeze themselves into someone else’s idea of what a business ‘should’ look like. Or beat themselves up when they find that they don’t fit the conventional image of a successful business owner.

Mike is an ICF-accredited coach, and a Chartered Accountant, with 16+ years of experience in multi-national companies empowering, energising and teaming-up with others to simplify complex problems and deliver major change.

He is a energetic, upbeat speaker who uses enlightening analogies and real-life stories to get an audience really thinking about their own unique situation, and how they can build a business that truly works for them.

Helen Emmett - Linkedin testimonial: Mike delivered a fantastic session on Being More You as part of our Women in Finance events. Mike is so open, genuine and insightful and the feedback from the audience - women and allies! was incredibly positive. Would recommend!
LinkedIn testimonial from Georgia Stylianou: I’d like to take this opportunity to thank Mike Cole for the recent workshop he held for our Trades community. We take a holistic approach to helping our construction companies with their brand and marketing and understand that mindset and confidence play a huge part in the struggles or successes of a company. </p>
<p>The workshop that Mike presented was educational, engaging, clear and understanding. The focus around neurodiversity as a business owner and the ideas and support shared was so well received by the Trades that attended. And we are so excited to be able to share the recording in the future to other Trades that join our community as we feel it will make a huge difference to their approach to business.</p>
<p>Mike - thank you so much for what truly was an outstanding workshop. I would highly recommend speaking to Mike about presenting a workshop to your workforce, clients and communities to provide clarity, break-down and alternative - positive - ways of thinking to help achieve success for all.

“Mike’s talk was a great addition to the event and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him.

 

Mike did an engaging talk to a group of 100 coaches bringing in practical examples and humour to bring life and clarity to the subject matter. His talk showed his passion for the subject and it was clear it was well prepared and planned as well as pitched appropriately to the audience”.

Example talks & workshops

1. Be More You – the hidden key to success

(30-60min talk)

Successful entrepreneurs are on podcasts, in books and on stage, telling you what it took to get where they are… but there’s a hidden key to their success nobody’s talking about… until now…

In this engaging session, Mike takes us on a journey to unearth this key, and understand how we too can use it to our advantage.

Expect an energetic, upbeat talk combining real-life stories and relevant metaphors to deliver a lasting message, with some top insights from big names along the way.

This talk is for everyone in business (owner or employee) and is especially relevant if you or your colleagues are neuro-diverse.

2. How to make high-performance habits that stick

(20-30min Workshop)

In this session Mike highlights the secrets to breaking through the “valley of disappointment” to tap into the transforming benefits of compound gains.

Then you’ll pick a habit you want to change, and using a workbook, Mike will talk you through how to make it stick.

You’ll walk away with a focused action plan, and a repeatable process you can apply time and time again.

(typically 20-30 mins, but can be adapted on request)
