*contains strong language* Whether we show it to the world or not, there are times where we know we're being petty and self-centered and other times where we surprise ourselves with what we're capable of. This week, Michael highlights the difference between the two and how paying more attention to the genius than the a**hole makes a huge difference to our effectiveness in the world.

The Genius and the A**hole

Michael Neill is an internationally renowned transformative teacher, author, broadcaster, and speaker, described as having the unique ability to "blend the sacred with the profane". The inside-out understanding at the heart of his work challenges the cultural mythology that stress, pressure, and other symptoms of "seriousness" are a necessary part of adaptation and growth in business or indeed any area of life.

In his role as CEO of Genius Catalyst Inc. since its inception in the UK in 1990 to its incorporation in the USA in 2007, Michael has spearheaded its growth from consultancy to a multi-media organisation delivering services to tens of thousands of loyal customers each year through live training, online courses, and self-study programs.

He has also spent more than three decades as a coach, adviser, friend, mentor, and creative spark plug to founders, CEO's, celebrities, royalty, and those who are up to something in the world. His global client base is wide and diverse, having served clients in North America, UK, Europe, and the Middle East in the fields of investment, sales, energy, manufacturing, the entertainment and media industry, and more. He has been consistently ranked alongside Jack Canfield, Tony Robbins, and other legends in the field as one of the top 30 coaching thought leaders in the world, and continues to run a small private practice working with high performers in their fields of expertise.

A gifted communicator, Michael has authored six best-selling books including Creating the Impossible, The Inside-Out Revolution, The Space Within, and Supercoach. His books have been translated into more than 25 languages, and his public talks, retreats and seminars have touched and transformed lives at the United Nations and in over 60 countries and on six continents around the world. His TEDx talks, 'Why Aren't We Awesomer?'and 'Can a TEDx Talk Really Change the World?' have been viewed by over two million people around the world and his blog and podcast, Caffeine for the Soul, has  been  entertaining  and  inspiring audiences around the world for more than 20 years.
