Discover, define, and decide how to win your way
Keynotes that challenge leaders to expand possibility and take aligned action so they can create success on their own terms
BOOK MICHAEL TO SPEAKYou hold pretty high expectations of yourself and those around you. As a result? You love to win. A lot.
Sounds a great deal like someone I know … *cough* That’s me. *cough*
I’m assuming you haven’t clocked in this many hours and come all this way just to play small now, have you? Yeeeaahh, that’s a bit fat NO.
But up to this point, what has all your success cost you? Healthy relationships? Personal wellbeing? Those are the few things in life that matter most and aren’t worth sacrificing.
There’s another way to get where you want to go. An easier way. A better way.
It’s called Wynning Your Way™.
“[Michael] inspired us to find our wins, use intention to break out of fear, and the persuasion formula was a big hit!”
Michael was a dream to work with. Everyone loved learning about the visualization and high-performance habits we can put in motion immediately.

Meet Michael Wynne Kithcart
High-Performance Executive Coach, Speaker, and Creator of the Wynning Your Way Method™
The Wynning Your Way Method™ is a framework I’ve used on myself, teams I’ve led, and hundreds of high performers I’ve served through my coaching business to accomplish breakthrough results.
“Wynning” is spelled with a “Y” by the way, because it starts with YOU.
According TO you, crafted BY you, and in support OF you. “Wynne” is also my middle name. So yes … you could say I was born to win. ;)
Wordplay aside, I’m here for the people who make shit happen in the world. The overstretched achievers who are accustomed to “succeeding” by most standards, but want to experience joy in pursuit of their fullest potential.
I spent years overachieving because I thought that was what success looked like and required. And in the process, I completely exhausted myself. When I finally set my own mindset, standards for success, and shared them with others, I realized how many other high achievers conform themselves to fit outward expectations of success.
That’s why my greatest passion is helping high achievers transform into high performers, crush limiting beliefs, and show them they can truly have it all. All the accomplishments, all the results, all the success — and feel good while doing it.
“[Michael] challenged us to break up with achieving in exchange for truly thriving and reminded us that we already have everything we need within ourselves to be who we are meant to be.”
As a keynote speaker, Michael shared implementable ways to get quick wins on our journeys to success on our own terms. Attendees left feeling ready to define success on their own terms and empowered to take their dreams from goals to reality.

I’m a good fit if you want to give your audience …
An ass-kick in the best kind of way
Enough said. Getting to the next level takes a little tough love, challenging expectations, and throwing preconceived notions out the window.
A blend of leadership, psychology, and brain science
The power of the mind is grossly underestimated. The only way to achieve outward results is by dedicating time to inward thoughts, beliefs, and behaviors.
25 years' worth of executive career insight
I’ll never ask your audience to do anything I haven’t experimented on or tried myself! Everything I teach is from personal application.
A game plan with immediate action steps
I’m not here to talk your ear off for an hour. I address the “why” and the “how” with practical application backed by research to improve performance and quality of life, starting today.

The Relationship Between Commitment and Courage
You can’t be 90% committed. You either are, or you aren’t. Problem is, most high achievers think they’re committed, but their actions say otherwise.
This keynote breaks down step three of the Wynning Your Way Method™ to help you identify where you need to demonstrate true commitment and more courageous action. First, we’ll discuss what commitment is, what it’s not, and how it’s a reflection of who you are.
Then, you’ll be challenged to ask yourself: “Do I have the balls to do this?” — that’s the courage piece! To which the answer should be, HELL yes! Because once you decide, nothing will stop you.
Length: 45-60 minutes
Good for: Sales teams, leadership, entrepreneurs

From Worn-Out High Achiever to Breakthrough High Performer
“Achiever” is often worn as a badge of honor. Yet the people who wear it also tend to be fatigued and running on empty. What gives?
Well, high achievement and high performance are NOT one and the same. To prove it, I’m going to dissect the six pillars of high performance based on the world’s largest study of high performers.
Expect truth bombs on why achievement limits you and how to become a high performer so you can find opportunities for growth in every area of life, starting today.
