About Analog Practice

I partner with leaders, founders, and creatives at an inflection point. They’ve led interesting lives and achieved excellence through determination and skill, yet now feel constrained and seek their next level of impact.

I work analog-style: fully present, creating the space to explore what matters most to you right now. I bring structure to expand and deepen your vision, with tools and frameworks adding insight, never reducing your experience into premade boxes.

By creating space to slow down strategically, I help you identify which limitations to overcome and which reveal unexpected strengths. We unlock greater clarity, alignment with core values, and purposeful momentum exactly when it counts.

Who I Work With

My clients have spanned:

Founders and startup leaders building and scaling organizations.
Executives and senior leaders in nonprofits, corporate strategy, and global health.
High-potential professionals in HR, L&D, and talent acquisition.

They come to coaching because:

They’re new executives needing to delegate effectively to scale their impact
They’re navigating complex transitions with no established playbook
They’ve hit a ceiling where “trying harder” yields diminishing returns
They’re experiencing less fulfillment with each achievement
They’re succeeding externally while managing internal self-doubt, seeking more ease and flow

Testimonials

His insightful approach, especially in guiding me to discover solutions through thoughtful conversations, has been transformative. Through our sessions I feel that I gained a deeper understanding of how to support and guide my team’s career progression while also growing in my own leadership role. His coaching has helped me realize how much room I still had to grow, and I’m proud of the progress I’ve made and how to take a step back, reflect, and act with intention, and I look forward to continuing to develop with these skills in mind.

– Charlie, Executive Director, Non-Profit Organization

Within a few sessions with Michael, I realized that this work was critical to my ability to move forward as a leader. Michael not only helped me see my leadership superpowers, but even more importantly, my blind spots, and to make connections between my past experiences and how those impact my communication. The tools he shared were specific, useful, and insightful, deepening our sessions together. Coaching with Michael has truly changed the way I work and lead.

– Adrienne Ellis, Director of Strategic Initiatives, The Centers

What sets him apart is his ability to guide without directly solving problems; he empowers individuals to uncover their own solutions. His skill in unraveling questions and getting to the root of the matter makes every session deeply impactful…. Having experienced his coaching support all the way from India, I can confidently say that his dedication transcends boundaries. I highly recommend Mike to anyone seeking a coach who inspires growth, self-reliance, and long-term transformation.
