Michael in a few words
I am a native English writer with over 30 years of leadership experience. I have been copywriting, proofreading and ghostwriting for 18 years. I am an experienced writer and have a published book, ‘Wild Waters in the Roar’ which is about rowing across the Indian Ocean - see it listed on Amazon:
With ‘distinction’ qualifications with the LinkedIn Marketing Copywriting course and a top student with the outstanding leader of Blog instructors, Jon Morrow’s Smart Bloggers writing course, I can produce an excellent result in short targetted blogs or larger articles/books.

I have run several successful blog and SEO campaigns for companies and individuals covering a selection of different subjects including Leadership, Self-Development, Lifestyle, Endurance Performance (cycling and rowing), Mental Toughness, Adventure and Travel, Food for Health and Life in Nature. I have also written store marketing catalogues. That said, I am happy to write about pretty much anything.

Clients are thrilled with my responsiveness, attention to detail and professionalism, resulting in significant repeat business and referrals. There is no substitute for investing in writing and language expertise if you need an impeccable outcome. I am available to discuss your project, my services and any questions you may have relating to my skills, portfolio or professional commitment.

Thank you, Mike
Experience
  • Discover Synergy
    Director
    December 2011 - Today (12 years and 11 months)
    I lead a consultancy practice designed to allow companies to discover what synergies work in their business practices and how to further strengthen them. Most recently, I have worked with teams delivering competency driven solutions to improve work performance. I have worked in a number of HR and competency driven areas, and aim to develop all areas of key management skills regardless of level. I deliver highly proactive and experiential leadership/ high performing teams programmes which are delivered to the required needs and outcomes - all are ILM accredited which exemplifies the quality and standard of the programmes. I also deliver sports and business mental toughness programs to get the very best out of people and recently have been involved in the Bath RFC Academy and Bristol Ladies RFC. This is an area which I have found is very relevant and needed in many sectors. Having a 'toolbox' of interventions to help you deal with external stressors is invaluable, no matter who you are or at what level you are.
