Mike R. Sweeney is a sought-after speaker on leadership paradoxes, peak performance, founder dynamics, and high-trust, high-performing teams.
He thrives in contradiction: an Army guy turned girl dad, an East Coaster with a West Coast vibe, and a strategist who balances data with the unpredictability of human behavior. Mike has spent 20+ years helping leaders embrace complexity and turn tension into opportunity.
A disciplined veteran raising three free-spirited daughters, he knows firsthand that growth isn’t about choosing sides – it’s about holding opposites in balance.
Speaking Topics Include:
How to find common ground where there is none
How to build high-performing teams
Leadership (servant leadership, leadership development, other general topics)
Change management (adaptability, tech adoption, digital learning)
