Leadership & career coaching · Raleigh, NC:One micro action. Every day.
For 27 years Mike helped people through some of the biggest decisions of their lives — finding the right career, helping a spouse land on their feet after a move, choosing where to put down roots. Coaching is how he keeps doing that work, one person at a time.
01Mike's role
In your corner.
Mike's pledge is simple: reach out to one person every day and be an encourager, an advisor and a cheerleader. That's the posture he brings to coaching.
- 01
Encourager
Someone in your corner who believes the change is possible.
- 02
Advisor
Straight talk from decades of hiring, selling and building a business.
- 03
Cheerleader
Celebrating the victories — the small ones especially.
02Who it's for
Where Mike can help.
Leaders & executives
Build and keep winning teams, lead each personality the way they need to be led, and make clearer decisions under pressure.
Career moves
One person's floor is another person's ceiling. Define what success means for you, then navigate a job search, a career change or a relocation with someone who has seen 1,000+ placements up close.
Entrepreneurs
Apply the discipline it takes to launch, separate what you need from what you want, and stay profitable through the downturns.
03In their words
“I've known Mike Barefoot for 22 years… he listens and understands who you are and what you want or need to do. He understands the market and what drives people. He is the contact you need in your corner.”
You're never going to be perfect in terms of your results, but you can be perfect in terms of your intent.
04Getting started
It starts with a conversation.
Tell Mike where you are and where you want to be in 12 months. Together you'll find the micro action you're willing to take even on your worst day — and build from there.
“I want to hear about your challenges. I want to hear about your stories. More importantly, I want to hear about your victories.”
