An anthropologist with a PhD from the University of East London, where he is a former lecturer, Michael has also taught at the trailblazing London Interdisciplinary School and the University of Brighton.
His many business talk clients include IBM, Deloitte, Barclays Bank, Proctor & Gamble, and Omnicom. His perspectives on creativity have been published in the Guardian newspaper and he has run Guardian Masterclasses in how to unlock your creative potential.
Also a leading and branding expert and business anthropologist, Michael has spent years providing organisations with consultancy on how to optimise their business for creativity.
