Since July 1 1993, Mike Lipkin has helped over 500 companies bring out the best in their people so their people could bring out their best for their customers.

In 1980, Mike graduated with a business degree from the University of Witwatersrand in Johannesburg, South Africa. He then went on to become a brand manager at Colgate Palmolive. Following that, he became a board member at Grey Advertising South Africa, before emigrating to Toronto, Canada in 1987 where he became an Account Director at Ogilvy & Mather, one of the world’s leading advertising agencies.

In 1992, following Nelson Mandela’s release from prison and the end of Apartheid, he returned to South Africa where he launched his own training and motivation company, Touch The Sky Inc. Over the next ten years, he published seven books and helped transform the nation into one of the world’s most vibrant democracies.

I returned to Canada in 2002 to launch Environics/Lipkin, a global research and motivation company with the Environics Research Group, one of Canada’s largest and most sophisticated polling companies. Since then, I have published four bestselling books, including my latest title – "One Life, One Meeting, How To Build Preeminence One Conversation At A Time." All my books and programs are a fusion of the celebrated Environics Social Values Research and my own experience with over a million people in 43 countries over the past sixteen years.

Today, Mike is one of North America’s preeminent coaches and motivators. In the last 12 months, he has delivered over 150 programs to 40 organizations in 19 countries from Russia, to Turkey to South Africa to The USA and Canada. Almost every working day, he speaks to an organization somewhere on the planet.
