Most companies do not stall because the strategy is wrong. They stall because the people responsible for executing it are stretched too thin. Michael explores the leadership bandwidth problem and how fractional and interim executives close the gap fast.
Experience changes the questions you ask. Michael shares what seasoned operators know about building process, systems, and technology that run without you, and why the right leadership makes execution repeatable instead of heroic.
From corporate America to startup hypergrowth to building his own company, Michael shares a founder journey that is still unfolding. The worst day, the best day, and the lessons in between become a candid conversation about identity, reinvention, and what it takes to keep building.
Not another prediction about the future. A practical conversation about what leaders and their teams can do with AI today. Michael cuts through the hype to focus on useful applications, better questions, and turning experimentation into everyday execution.
Share the room, the occasion, and what you want people to leave thinking about.
