What did our clients say?
"Michelle did a great job as our coach and trainer for the manager training at Microsoft. She was great at maintaining the interest, energy and engagement up at all times, by using diverse integration and interactive participation techniques. She was able to

“I started my coaching experience with Michelle Zou in Microsoft in 2016, and the journey continues. She is the best coach I can ever imagine. She coaches me on my work and life. She also helps me gain energy and confidence to overcome problems. In the past three years, I’ve promoted twice and grown into a people manager role. I view her as a trusty friend and someone I can always turn to when I need help. “
- L. W. Principal Research Manager, Microsoft
“Michelle is the consummate, connected, and extremely effective executive coach who has helped me tremendously grow my career at Microsoft. She has been working with me in a coaching capacity leveraging the Energy Leadership framework. She coached me on understanding how my core thoughts determine my emotion and drive my actions and what steps to take to raise my energy level.
Michelle is extremely patient, supremely knowledgeable, and enormously respectful and helped me focus on how to take my career to the next level. As result of her coaching, I feel more confident, more motivated, and more equipped to take on greater responsibility and improve my relationships at home, at work, and at play. I highly recommend Michelle and consider her an executive coaching asset to any executive at any level!”

因为有缘，与Michelle Zou 邹英毅女士通过电波相识。Michelle 作为我的节目嘉宾一起合作了一年，作了十多期节目。我们的访谈内容从工作到家庭，谈人在职场的焦虑，谈家庭成员因为“关系”不对而幸福缺失。
我们面对的世界纷繁复杂，Michelle 的公式却极其简单：SPIRE 幸福模型(Spiritual Wellbeing, Physical Wellbeing, Intellectual Wellbeing, Relational Wellbeing, Emotional Wellbeing) 。Michelle 可以用这个SPIRE系统切合实际作“诊断”，提供相应的工具。每一个工具都是基于科学实证研究，简单易行。
我知道Michelle的工作非常繁忙，但每次在节目中，她都充满感染力，充满激情。在我看来，她在做的，不仅仅是一份工作，而是一种使命。她自己也正是活出了这样的生命状态。我想，正如SPIRE幸福模型中所提到的”精神福祉“，有了生活方向的人总是阳光的，向上的，而且也向周围释放着温暖。
我在节目中，时常被Michelle感染，我时常用SPIRE来内观自己，提醒自己。是的，当你的生命中有了某种意义，你去为之而行动，你的成功与幸福不再被物质牵绊，你内心升起的从容与喜悦就是你最大的成功和幸福。
