Widely recognized as a pioneer of coaching science, she co-developed models and handbooks that shaped modern coaching psychology and has trained professionals in more than 60 countries.Her research has been equally groundbreaking: from exploring neurodiversity and generational change, to leading the world's first long-term peer-reviewed study into why some founders scale while others fail-work that has redefined how entrepreneurial success is understood.In 2019, Michelle led her team to develop original predictive data and linguistic models to power the earliest conversational AI coach-years before ChatGPT brought AI into everyday life. These innovations became the foundation of Marlee, the AI collaboration and performance operating system now supporting teams in more than 95,000 organizations worldwide, including Google, the United Nations, Disney, Canva, and Apple.Through it all, Michelle's thread of purpose has remained the same: coaching some of the world's most influential culture shapers-scientists, Academy Award-winning storytellers, Olympic athletes, and founders of transformative technology companies-alongside countless parents and everyday humans unfurling their own unique life journey.Her mission continues to unfold with one clear aim: to help unlock the next evolution of humanity, and to build a sustainable future where every person has the chance to thrive.
