Driven by a deep fascination with psychology, influence, and persuasion, Michael D. Griffith has coached hundreds of individuals to rise above communication mediocrity, command attention, and leave a more lasting impact. He distilled hundreds of communication techniques into a one-of-a-kind communication skills program, SpeechDeck.com. In the quest to formalize the process of ethically influencing an audience, Michael became keenly aware of the rampant unethical deception and manipulation pervading nearly every facet of modern culture. As a result, he expanded his teaching to include topics related to health, spirituality, deception, and inspiration. Early in his career, Michael invented the world's first online click-exchange service and developed other interactive online services. Between projects, he also traveled coast-to-coast teaching financial planning. However, personal struggles with physical and mental health altered his course. In his endeavors, Michael draws from his diverse experiences and infuses every project with a peculiar talent for weaving analogies into his writing, public speaking, and coaching to produce captivating narratives with multiple layers of symbolic meaning. Tired of the same old regurgitated information and advice, his goal is always to share something you've never heard before. See less
