Lead Like a Coach, Whatever You Do

No matter what you do, you’re a leader and you’re a coach. The two are inseparable from each other. Leading without coaching is malpractice. It’s short-sighted, unsustainable and selfish. On the other hand, “Leading like a coach” Is when you enable, not mandate. You inspire, not intimidate. You expand, not constrict. You make people happy, not miserable – including yourself.

Over the past 26 years, Mike Lipkin has coached over a million people in 43 countries. Together with his colleagues at Environics, Mike studies the people that enable others to achieve extraordinary results.

How to Communicate Like a Champion

Highly Effective Communication is the secret sauce of today’s Champions. It is the process of sharing information and transferring emotions in such a way that others are motivated to take the desired actions.

Communication is a natural process. When it’s done right, it’s a beautiful thing. It inspires engagement and passion. Sometimes all it takes is a slight shift in emphasis or change in tone.

Speaker Biography

Mike Lipkin’s mission is to help you and your team achieve preeminence – that’s where you become the benchmark by which all others are judged. It’s where you play at such a level that you set the standard for your industry or category. It is achievable. In fact, it’s necessary. If we’re not defining the standard, then someone else is and they are going to enjoy the rewards of being the best. And by the way, either we become the best, or we become irrelevant. There is no middle ground. These are extreme times. We’re all being subjected to extraordinary stress and scrutiny by everyone around us – our colleagues, our clients, and our communities. Good enough isn’t good enough any more. Even great may not be good enough. The Pursuit of Preeminence is the only path that will deliver the results that you desire and deserve.

I am a Potentiator.

A Potentiator is someone who creates breakthroughs with others by enabling them to play at their best.

In these unprecedented times, we’re all going where we’ve never been before. We need people in our ecosystem that multiply our capacity to grow and contribute. We are only as good as the company we keep. And to keep good company, we have to earn good company in every conversation, every day. It’s not good enough just being good enough. We have to inspire others to be the best version of themselves.

Since July 1 1993, I have helped over a thousand companies in 65 countries bring out the best in their people so their people bring out their best for all their stakeholders.

I graduated with a business degree from the University of Johannesburg, South Africa. Then I became a brand manager at Colgate Palmolive. Following that, I became a board member at Grey Advertising South Africa, before emigrating to Toronto, Canada, where I became an Account Director at Ogilvy & Mather, one of the world’s leading advertising agencies.

Following Nelson Mandela’s release from prison and the end of Apartheid, I returned to South Africa where I launched my own training and motivation company, Touch The Sky Inc. Over the next ten years, I published seven books and helped transform the nation into one of the world’s most vibrant democracies.

I returned to Canada in 2002 to launch Environics/Lipkin, a global research and motivation company. Since then, I have published eight bestselling books, including my latest title – The Potentiator – How to  Create Breakthroughs with Others in a Post-Pandemic World. All my books and programs are a blend of the celebrated Environics Social Values Research with my own lived experience as a coach, confidante and Potentiator.

In 2018, I also became a certified Leadership Circle Profile practitioner. This enables me to provide state-of-the-art 360 evaluations for both individuals and teams.

I turn every engagement, in-person or online, into a compelling learning experience. In line with my philosophy that life is theatre with consequences, I make people laugh, talk and share while they learn.’
