“Michael was my direct manager for over 2.5 years at Peloton. He is an excellent people leader, a fantastic team player and I always felt empowered by him to take decisions and take on more responsibilities, but at the same time I knew that I could always come to him for advice if I needed guidance or a second opinion. He enabled me to grow a tremendous amount, take on additional projects whilst also making sure I was not taking on too much. I always felt safe knowing that if something ever hadn't gone according to plan, he would work with me to find a new approach or solution and his approach was entirely solution-focused (as opposed to blaming), making sure it was solved and prevented from happening again in the future. It was an absolute pleasure to work with Michael, he led by example, is detail-oriented and diligent whilst always keeping in mind the big picture, creative, and a truly great producer and manager.”
