Michael uses his expertise to help businesses make better decisions.

Michael has a wealth of experience delivering value for companies, NGOs, and other organizations. His work includes multi-year engagements with companies like Slalom, SEB, Estee Lauder Companies, and AIIR Consulting to assess strategy, evaluate and implement new learning activities, develop and evaluate culture-building exercises, and, for Slalom, probe the impact of remote and hybrid work on brain systems driving individual and team performance.
