“The key to being an effective consultant is not only to have obtained the ‘know how’ but to be able to transfer that expertise effectively to your audience. Fortunately for the hundreds of our members who have had the opportunity to hear Michael McLaughlin’s presentations they have learned first-hand to value his broad knowledge, willingness to share, and ability to identify and solve problems in a collaborative way, all of which are traits in short supply in our 24/7 world.”
- Dave Opton, Founder & CEO, ExecuNet
“Michael McLaughlin showed me that there is a world of difference between people who call themselves consultants and a professional consulting business. Working with Michael transformed my business and gave me the clarity I needed to develop a web site, a marketing plan, and understand how to offer customers clearly defined solutions to their challenges. Wise, extraordinarily knowledgeable, perceptive, with a great sense of humor, Michael inspires trust in his guidance and confidence in one’s own vision of business success.”
– Kevin Mannion, Sky Road Consulting, LLC
“We had the pleasure of having Michael McLaughlin speak to our group of senior management consultants and three weeks later we are still being asked when we will have him back! In a short period of time he was able to give the group so many pearls of wisdom that we do not have the time to implement them into our practices. We can not wait to have him back!!”
- Bob Phillips, Program Co-Chair, IMC, Oregon/SW Washington Chapter

I highly recommend Mike and MindShare Consulting.”
