Presenting to a single individual, a group, or a large audience is daunting. They say "the only thing worse than death and taxes is public speaking" doesn't need to apply to you or your group. The number one problem with presenting is confidence. The fear of the unknown is scary and prevents people from excelling as speakers. The key to connecting with people is communication and the best communicators are the best presenters. My “Own the Room” presentation techniques revolve around improv, knowledge, and organization. Learn how the "IOK UOK" training can turn anybody into a world class communicator and speaker.

I'm excited to invite you to join my transformative program based on my book, "Out-of-the-Ordinary." In this course, we won't just talk about thinking outside the box; we'll dive deep into challenging the default settings of your mind. This isn't another theoretical session on creative thinking. Instead, you'll learn actionable strategies to push beyond conventional boundaries and explore new, potentially superior ways of thinking and acting.
You'll discover how the most successful people break free from linear thinking, test the status quo, and when necessary, redefine it. Sometimes the default is the best path, but often, it's not. I'll show you how to critically evaluate these defaults, question them effectively, and map out a plan to establish new, more effective standards.
This program is designed to equip you with the skills to identify and challenge the default, navigate the uncertainty, and innovate fearlessly. Join me, and let's embark on a journey to unleash your full potential by mastering the art of rethinking and transforming the ordinary into the extraordinary.

Blazing your own path and questioning the default is what separates the good from the great. We live in a world of followers. If you chose to be like most and strictly follow, you will be like the majority of "ordinary" people. With Michael Balch's guidance, you'll learn to overcome "ordinary" and become "extraordinary" and discover your unshakeable confidence and embrace your true potential.
As the author of the book "Out-of-the-Ordinary" Michael shows you how ordinary is thwarting success and "Out-of-the-Ordinary" is changing the world. This is not another "out of the box" strategy, but how to question the default to make it better.

Michael's Talks
Be Extraordinary and not the Default
Let’s face it: Competition is tougher than ever these days. Continuing to follow the default is a guarantee for ordinary results. If you don't want to just improve but want to excel Michael Balch's Out-of-the-Ordinary strategies will take you beyond your dreams and goals. Michael teaches you that those things don't happen by being the "default." The "default" is how it is supposed to be done, but the reality is todays "default" is normal, predictable and safe. Follow the path that you are told to follow, and you are well on your way to "ordinary." There is nothing wrong with "ordinary," but if you want to be "extraordinary" let me show you how to move beyond the ''ordinary" and become "extraordinary." My "Out-of-the-Ordinary" strategies will change your World and the World you live in.
X's, O's, and Why's
Intelligence and education don't make you smart. X's and O's matter, but "why's" elevate you to higher levels.
As a severe dyslexic that refers to himself as a functioning illiterate, how did I graduate college and rise to the top of a field littered with the best and brightest minds that education could buy? Education is important and critical in our society but we spend so much time learning the "right" way that we all learn the same things. The X's and O's we learn are important, but it is the "why's" that allow you to rise to the top. Why are a great deal of Fortune 500 CEO's dyslexic? It is the "why's" they learned beyond the X's and O's that made them the best. Learn how the "Why's" can make you the best in your field.
