"Leading The Leadership Challenge Workshop all around the country for the Tom Peters Company, Mike and I worked together for many years. For me, sitting in the back of the classroom, while Mike was presenting, was a practical, down-to-earth leadership lesson in how to create intimate conversations instead of trite trainings. Michael’s wealth of experience on the firing line in real business situations allowed him to relate to each person in the room no matter what their title or position. If you’re looking for a trusted, competent professional to lead the change effort in your business, you’ve come to the right place. If theory plus practical results is what you’re after, look no further. Michael Neiss is your man." Robert H. Thompson Leadership Author, Speaker and Executive Coach

What makes his engagement with Herman Miller so uniquely successful is his ability to integrate the theory, leadership practices, and his own "in the trenches" stories into meaningful learning experiences on what really matters as a leader at Herman Miller.
