About Mike Pitcher:

What does it take for a company to get recognized as one of the top places to work? It takes great leadership that motivates team members to be their best. That’s what Mike Pitcher has brought to the C-suite over his more than 35-year career at some of the most recognized names in Corporate America. And that’s what he brings to the stages of some of the top events in the nation.

With remarkable leadership success at Pitney Bowes, Dell, and LeasePlan, Mike has honed the grit and intricate insights of a great leader, and learned the oft-considered “soft” skills that bring out the best in people of all backgrounds.

For the past two decades in C-level leadership, Mike has led teams to remarkable improvement at LeasePlan and Dell.  At LeasePlan, one of the nation’s largest vehicle fleet management companies, the turnaround earned the company top honors among the “Best Places to Work” for mid-sized companies in the city of Atlanta by the Atlanta Journal Constitution (AJC), and one of the “25 Best Medium-Size Companies to Work For” in Fortune Magazine in 2013. The headline for the AJC story speaks volumes about Mike’s leadership approach and his impact on his team: “They are all in this together.”

Mike's 24 Hour Challenge:

My twenty-four-hour challenge to you is actually twenty-four, then 7, then 365. In the next 24 hours you will be engaged with your sons, your daughters, your husband, your wife, your mom, friends. I want you to change the way that you listen and listen intentionally and what the challenges is for you to listen so that the person speaking feels felt. They know that you felt their emotions, that you felt their words, that you felt their meaning. This isn't just about conversations in business, but also with your spouse, loved ones, and friends.

Let us know how the challenge goes by posting on our Instagram or Facebook page.
