Tiffany Manuel, Human Resources Director & Risk Manager
"Working for a smaller county with limited resources, we sometimes struggle to provide high-quality development opportunities for our employees. When I first learned about Catching Leadership through a CCHR presentation, I was excited by the possibilities. From the start, Michael and Caitlyn were just great to work with. Michael was flexible and willing to get creative so we could make it work financially, and he really took the time to tailor his approach to include leadership concepts that were important to our Workforce Development Committee and aligned with our Strategic Plan. The whole planning process felt easy. Our communication was smooth, materials were delivered on time, and everything came together just as we had hoped.
During the academy, Michael was incredible. He has a natural way of connecting with people, and our employees really responded well to that. He created a space that felt supportive and engaging, while also challenging participants to think differently and grow. His leadership wisdom and philosophies inspired our emerging leaders, and they looked up to him as a role model. We received very positive feedback from our post-academy survey. Many participants shared that this was the best training they’ve experienced, and more importantly, participants also shared they walked away with concepts they can apply both at work and in their personal lives.
We’re really grateful to have found Catching Leadership and to have built this partnership with Michael and Caitlyn. Thank you both for the work you do, and we look forward to continuing to work with you in the future."

"Michael helps individuals develop new techniques that apply to a modern work environment. By creating a supportive, creative, open environment, a Catching Leadership program can benefit a professional at any level."
“Catching Leadership’s customized workshop series has given me the clarity and awareness I needed to take my business to the next level. Michael did a phenomenal job of leading others holistically to understand the context of their lives, their business, and their relationships with others. I now know the path that I am on because of this program’s ability to map out the vision I have for myself and my business. I highly recommend this program to all those who seek to lead others at the highest level.”
"Michael is a gifted leadership coach! I got the opportunity to participate in a 6-part program series and left equipped with great resources for my day-to-day job. I highly recommend!"
"I just thought I’d share I practiced the “power of the pause” today when talking with a coworker about rolling something out. Long of the short of it, he generally likes to bulldoze his opinion as the only way (and in this case he didn’t want to do anything) and feels he can since he’s been with us 40+ years and while what I was suggesting won’t completely fix what I am aiming to do, it’s a big step in the right direction. So I simply said “if we do this it will make their job easier tomorrow than it does today so why not do this?” And paused. And paused. It worked!
I’ve said similar to him in the past but continued to word vomit trying to continue to state my case.
Thanks so far for what you’re bringing to us all at our company!"
"I am deeply grateful for the outstanding coaching and guidance you’ve provided. The experience has been transformative, positively impacting both my personal life and professional career.
You were instrumental in helping me strengthen my communication skills and clarify my vision for the future. Your direct feedback, thought-provoking questions, and belief in my potential consistently pushed me beyond my comfort zone to achieve results I never thought possible.
One defining moment was when I lost my job—your support helped me navigate that challenge with perseverance and trust in myself. Your dedication to my growth, both mentally and emotionally, has been inspiring, and I am confident the skills and mindset I’ve gained will continue to serve me well for years to come.
I am truly thankful for your mentorship and the lasting impact you’ve had on my life."
Retreat Testimonials
"I learned many new leadership skills and techniques and felt a sense of allowing time for self-reflection and self-improvement which is key to any strong leader."
"The retreat was amazing both on a personal and professional level. I felt my working relationships were strengthened with those I attended with."
"Joining Catching Leadership's Fly Fishing Leadership Trip was an incredible experience that left a lasting impact on me. Through the art of fly fishing, I discovered valuable life lessons anyone can relate to. From learning about preparation, patience, and embracing failure to building meaningful relationships, this trip gave me practical insights to become a better leader, both on and off the water."
"I would highly recommend the retreat. It was personally a nice get away in a beautiful location, while building leadership skills at the same time!"
