“The qualities that Michael has as an individual are what makes him an outstanding business coach. He is supportive, encouraging, insightful and enthusiastic. He is always able to point out the positive aspects in any business lesson. Michael is also an excellent facilitator. In our group coaching sessions, he creates a very open yet engaging learning environment that allows the viewpoints of each participant. Michael’s group coaching has enlightened me and significantly improved my business approach.”

"We needed job descriptions and people needed to know who they should report to. We needed to know more about the financial side of the business. We also needed better controls and reporting systems for the financial and scheduling side of the business. All of our needs were met. The company is much more organized now. We have systems and procedures in place to continue this work. Several areas for savings were found that we are now benefiting from. Mike was a great guy to work with and has a good head on his shoulders."

"Mike's contagious enthusiasm was always refreshing. At Northwestern's Kellogg School we were assigned to study groups and Mike was a big addition to our team. His "Can Do" attitude and warmth in relationship building were great lessons for all of us! "

"We just had our 2nd Annual FocalPoint New England Team Meeting, sailing on Boston Harbor with Michael as our Captain. Michael has been running his “Sailing to Your Success” Program for years and I can now see why business leaders and their teams, value and appreciate the Program so much. If you are looking for an opportunity to disconnect from the daily chaos of your business, connect with your team for a few hours to build relationship and discuss business matters, all while enjoying the fresh air and views from Boston Harbor and the islands, I highly recommend that you reach out to Michael to explore this Program. Your business will benefit and your team will thank you."

"It has now been almost three years since I first started working with Michael. He has worked with me primarily on sales and marketing, but has also been able to do some deep dives into business operations and transitions. In a simple summary - Michael helped me believe in myself and my strength. I know I can do what I set out to do now."

"Michael Kaye is a rocket scientist when it comes to running a business. I felt very comfortable with his guidance. He is an extremely knowledgeable, hard working guy. I am at a loss to figure out how we got anything done before we started using Mike's suggestions!!!"

"Michael made an enormous difference in my business this year. Revenue increased by 70% since I started working with him. He used a combination of systems, procedures, positive attitude, goal-setting, encouragement, and humor to enable me to improve my business habits to bring more work in the door. His help has been invaluable and the lessons I learned will help me bring my business from good to great. He helped me visualize what I could be doing to grow the business, and even when I stumbled, he kept a positive, encouraging attitude. I would recommend him (and already have) to anyone wanting to improve their business."

Michael Kaye is a true professional and a mensch. He never passes up the opportunity to create and maintain good client relationships, as well as relationships between himself, his business contacts and the community at large."

I have been working with Michael Kaye for coaching services in a group coaching setting.
Michael has enabled me to look at my business with a fresh set of eyes. By Structuring client and financial information with Michael’s methodology, I now possess concrete data and a business plan, working to achieve objectives and goals.
The group coaching has provided us the opportunity to ask questions of each other and give feedback in a non-judgmental way. This synergy has benefited our group to actively encourage, share knowledge, and offer assistance to each other. In addition to coaching us, Michael is supportive of sharing information and ideas as we collectively want our “team” to succeed

We Found Excellence, when we found Mike... From the moment Mike called me and came to my office, his passion on the subject of his book, "We Found Excellence" was obvious. Mike wanted everyone he met to tell how they succeeded and what obstacles they encountered along the way in order to help other Minority and Women businesses.
Thank you for your passion, leadership and dedication to the M/WBE's as well as the small business sector that is the soul of our Country, especially in creating jobs.
