Maikel BaileyMaster Certified Intelligent Leadership Executive Coachmbailey@intelligentleadershipec.com801.910.5704Even as a child, I’ve always seemed to have some unique insight into other people. I found that a bit confusing why other people, especially grownups, did not understand what was so obvious. Still, I liked helping others – giving them insight, comfort, and encouragement. In some ways, I was precocious, in other ways, clueless. Curiosity about people and what made them tick has been my thing from the beginning and still is. I am very curious about people (individuals) and want to know more. So, I ask questions. The result is, I understand them better and, as it turns out, they seem to understand themselves better. After we talk, they have greater clarity in their minds and are more motivated to act decisively. I guess that is a lot of what coaching is.Since getting into the coaching and training business over 25 years ago, I find each encounter with each client fascinating and challenging. I ask myself, what do they want, really want, and how can I help them become that person who leaves their Comfort Zone and goes and gets it?Leaders fascinate me, what they do and how they do what they do. They can be complicated in how they work and, other times, surprisingly simple in their motivations and outlooks. Getting each leader to that place of their highest performance and the deepest satisfaction for themselves and the people they lead is highly challenging and deeply rewarding. It brings forth the best wins for everyone.Executive Coaching Endorsements from a Few of Maikel’s ClientsMaikel Bailey is one of the best executive level coaches and trainers I have ever had the opportunity to work with. I have had the privilege of attending numerous training sessions that Maikel has provided and been able to work with him directly one-on-one as well. He has a unique talent for taking complex topics, materials, or situations and presenting it in a way that anyone can grasp and understand. Additionally, Maikel has a natural ability to inspire greatness in others. I’ve witnessed this in both group settings and in his one-on-one work with individual executives. I have personally benefited from Maikel’s executive coaching and mentorship and would highly recommend him as a corporate trainer or executive coach for any organization wanting to get more out of their employees and executives.Jeff EricksonCarta | Startup Advisor | Angel InvestorIt seems like every day you see people offering coaching without any background or experience. This is not the case with Maikel. He knows his stuff and he has been doing this for years. Maikel helped me to work smarter, he gave me the tools I needed to succeed in any situation. He helped me find purpose in life and helped me set goals for the future. He especially helped me when I was deciding to leave my old company and pursue an opportunity with a new company that included equity and ownership. Originally I was very skeptical working with a coach, but he was worth every dollar!Steve BooksVP of Software Engineering at Spiff IncI’ve known Maikel for over 20 years. We’ve worked together on projects and I’ve taken advantage of Maikel’s expertise as a coach, teacher, and counselor as a friend and colleague, and benefited often, from his unusual ability to analyze and provide useful insight on almost any situation. But it wasn’t until I became a formal coaching client that I began to understand the depth of Maikel’s knowledge, wisdom, empathy, and effectiveness as a life coach and mentor. Since working with him in this “formal” client/coach relationship, my confidence, capacity, and performance have skyrocketed. I have gained clarity about what my goals and objectives are and what some of the specific beliefs and behaviors are that have held me back for decades. With his help, I’ve developed new skills to see myself and others more clearly, and to manage my life for vastly better results in my career, my family, and my personal challenges and goals. I can hardly imagine how anyone could not benefit from working with Maikel Bailey, if they put into practice even the tiniest portion of the tools, principles, and skills they will gain as a result. Maikel has an uncanny ability to cut to the heart of the matter and help you see things as they really are. And that truth WILL set you free!Bruce AckermanChief Marketing Officer of My Computer CareerThank you Maikel for showing me how to build my foundations deep so that when the sand shifts (as it inevitably does in life), I will stay grounded in my values. You taught me to take action and enjoy the ride. What a great ride, what a GREAT coach! Thank you for helping me on my journey.For more go to https://executiveleadersactilec.com/about-maikel-bailey/
