"Three days before our first scheduled talk as a client, he had already started helping me grow as a leader lending advice for a tough employee scenario. In short 3 months he has not only helped me become a better leader for my team. Opening my eyes to tools that I had right at my fingertips that I didn't even realize I had. To say that I am amped up about what my team will look like at the end of 2021 and beyond is an understatement!"

"Earlier this week I had the wonderful opportunity to have a one on one conversation with Mikel Bowman. I would like to let everyone know that Mikel's insights and down to earth approach are truly a godsend. One of the things that I respect about this man and the way that he helps is that he listens! He doesn't jump right in immediately knowing his way is right, but he takes the time to hear a client express what may be the issue and then offers up strategies for consideration. I've listened to other life coaches and inspirational people but sometimes it can be hard to take from a suit and tie on a stage when the audience is wearing Carhartts. He speaks the truth without speaking down. I am humbled to write this recommendation because whatever I say is going to fall short. Thank you Brother! "

"After one phone call I knew he was just what I had been seeking.
Mikel has a keen understanding of us as human beings. There is no dancing around the issue or moving the process in a different direction when it may be uncomfortable ... it's a rock solid, down-to-earth, full-throttle approach that works quickly and effectively. Plus, its what people like myself are used to and looking for after working and living in the blue collar industries and their respective lifestyles.Â
Having said that, when Mikel knows an issue is going to hit a nerve he gently (yet firmly) helps a person work through it. In the past I paid a counselor to help me through an issue, which she didn't, and Mikel literally put in its place in two sentences. TWO sentences.
I began this process with Mikel thinking it would be career focused, yet Mikel saw the big picture. My advice? Trust Mikel, trust his wisdom in the direction your coaching/consulting should go, and watch the dividends start rolling in!"

I remember my first 3 months in business I started a pond conversion for BGE and I was overwhelmed. Mikel Bowman, you set up a phone call to give back to your followers and man did that mean the world to me! Still to this day I am so grateful for that conversation, something more than commenting on social media… keep doing great things and building people!!

"Mikel will help you identify personal and professional ways to improve your life, your business, and your leadership. Before working with Mikel, I was intentionally taking ownership, trying to put my ego aside, and working to ask the right questions. Mikel has helped improve these aspects of being a leader, along with various other aspects of leadership. For me, his coaching and mentoring has guided me to be a better servant leader to my team, our employee-owners, my fiancé, and my family. "

"A purpose statement can also be a powerful resource for understanding your customer's needs and history. Working for a company that lives and breaths its mission statement and core values, has provided me a "why" for what I am doing and it is highly motivational."Â July 2022Â
