Leadership can no longer be a passive privilege. Those who serve today must embrace it as a call to action.


Michele L. Shelton

The Authority

In a career spanning 25+ years, Michele has held leadership roles across public, private, nonprofit and faith-based sectors specializing in HR, Organizational Development, and DEI. She has served on both sides of the aisle as an EEO enforcement official investigating and settling hundreds of corporate harassment and discrimination cases; and as the state government official charged with providing oversight to EEO/AA compliance for over 33,000 employees. 


Through her organizational leadership roles and independent practice clientele, Michele has inspired, trained, coached, and consulted with thousands of corporate and nonprofit executives, government officials, education administrators, faith and community leaders on executive growth and development, organizational strategy and leadership transition, workplace culture transformation, employee relations and retention.


 As a professional speaker, Holistic Leadership Authority, and certified executive coach, her unique vantage point makes Michele a trusted and preferred partner for leaders who want to build an authentic legacy of impact and longevity for themselves, their teams and organizations.

The Author

Michele is co-author of three international anthologies on women's issues, unlocking human potential in the workplace, and navigating value conflicts for working parents. She is currently working on her fourth and solo title, PEACE in Power: From Surviving the Game to Reclaiming Your Name. Michele has also been a featured thought leader in TV, podcast, radio, and leadership publications.

The Authenticity

 From packing fast food orders or answering phones, to watching the Kentucky Derby in the Executive Suites at Churchill Downs, and to debating issues with politicians on Capitol Hill, Michele has never forgotten her journey in the U.S. workforce, the lessons along the way, or the transformations she has made. These experiences and her faith motivate her introspection, inform her insight, and ignite her innovation.

 

And you get it ALL when she shows up!


Whether transporting to the possibilities during her keynotes, discovering the "aha" moments in her training sessions, or trusting the safety of her guidance as a coach, you will remember and relish the encounter.
