Keynote & Annual Business Session
Helping Leaders Perform Better
Presenter: Mike Staver
Mike Staver is the author of Leadership Isn’t for Cowards and an internationally respected speaker, author, and coach. Mike takes noisy, often complex, leadership content and makes it immediately useful, digestible, and entertaining.
In all of Mike's work, the goal is simple – helping leaders perform better and live better lives. To accomplish this, Mike uses counterintuitive perspectives, a storytelling style, and entertaining delivery that makes the often-challenging realities of work and life easier to absorb and put into practice.
