    Michael O’Brien’s bad day… a bike accident that almost left him for dead and then him struggling to cope with major lifetime physical limitations. But then a mentor changed Michael’s outlook on everything.

Today Michael is the Chief Shift Officer at Peloton Executive Coaching, and as a coach, speaker, and best-selling author, he helps leaders build resilience and prevents bad moments from turning into a bad day.
    His advice includes:
    ·        The importance of an accountability partner.
    ·        How perfectionism impedes good work.
    ·        Understanding the purpose of cringe-worthy moments.
    ·        How to be less reactive, more thoughtful and more intentional.
    Michael has shared his personal transformational Last Bad Day story and leadership advice on the TEDx stage, with Fortune 500 companies, Entrepreneur, Fast Company, Real Simple, ABC, and NBC. He also serves on The Healthcare Businesswomen’s Association Global Board.
