Mike Lee is a globally recognised keynote speaker, #1 best-selling author, and leadership coach who transforms how individuals and organisations approach performance through the power of presence.
After 15 years working with basketball's elite - including NBA MVPs Steph Curry and Joel Embiid - Mike now bridges high-performance sports psychology with practical mindfulness techniques to help leaders thrive in today's complex business environment.
Following a personal crisis with anti-depressant withdrawal symptoms, Mike immersed himself in mindfulness practices, creating a unique methodology that merges elite athletic mindsets with Eastern philosophy. This toolkit helps professionals navigate modern workplace challenges with clarity and purpose.
At Fortune 500 companies like Morgan Stanley, Cisco, and IBM, Mike's engaging programs have earned acclaim for their practical impact. Whether addressing a thousand-person ballroom or facilitating intimate leadership workshops, his authentic storytelling and vulnerability connect deeply with diverse audiences.
Mike's journey building a basketball business while battling anxiety and depression gives him rare insight into leadership challenges in volatile, uncertain environments. His latest book, "The New Rules For The Future of Leadership," endorsed by New York Times bestselling authors and Fortune 500 executives, offers fresh perspectives on creating cultures of belonging and psychological safety.
Drawing from neuroscience, sports psychology and personal experience, Mike delivers actionable strategies that help leaders reduce burnout, enhance focus, and cultivate resilience. His research shows we're only fully present about 50% of our workday - a costly reality he addresses with practical tools for reclaiming attention and optimising performance in an age of constant distraction.
Book Mike to equip your team with the mindsets and practices that transform distraction into presence, uncertainty into resilience, and potential into peak performance.
