COACH
SHANE
At 45, Shane reached a turning point. After years of chasing comfort and success in the corporate world, he found himself burned out, physically depleted, and spiritually disconnected. Choosing growth over comfort, he confronted the habits holding him back and rebuilt his life around what he now calls the Four F-Bombs: Faith, Family, Fitness, and Finances.
That transformation became a calling.
Shane is the owner of a successful fitness franchise and the co-founder of Leadership Ignition Team (LIT) — a leadership initiative created to help individuals and organizations grow stronger, sharper, and more purpose-driven. Through keynotes, workshops, and immersive coaching, Shane equips teams to lead with clarity, build trust, and take action that multiplies impact.
His message is grounded in experience, guided by faith, and delivered with energy. Whether he’s leading from the front lines of his gym, training executives, or speaking on stage, Shane lives out the belief that:
“As iron sharpens iron,
so one person sharpens another.”
— Proverbs 27:17
If your company, team, or community is ready to elevate its leadership, Shane — alongside LIT co-founder Mike — is ready to serve.

COACH
MIKE
Mike’s leadership journey started at the grass roots level—beginning his career loading luggage in his hometown of Marquette, MI. In addition to serving in the Army Nation Guard as a Medic, Mike is a graduate of the University of Wisconsin and earned an MBA at Northwestern’s Kellogg School of Management. 20 years and 4 airlines later, he was asked to lead as the CEO of private equity owned GAT Airline Ground Support. During his tenure, the company has grown from 34 locations to 80, 1,800 team members to just over 6,000 and revenue from $64m to more than $310m through while navigating the COVID-19 pandemic. Since 2017, he has cultivated a culture grounded in character and continuous growth, leveraging leadership development frameworks to elevate performance and grow. His real-world, blue‑collar leadership style is both accessible and compelling, proving that effective leadership isn't confined to the boardroom—it starts on the front lines.
As a co-founder of the Leadership Ignition Team along with Shane Beckham, Mike champions a powerful Four F-Bomb model: family, faith, finance, and fitness. Since launching in 2024, he’s cultivated a high‑performance network where people support one another in becoming 1% better every day. Leading weekly master‑minds and fitness boot‑camps, he brings together business executives, community groups, and individuals in a tightly‑knit community built on leadership fundamentals, accountability, challenge, and mutual uplift. Whether you’re overcoming plateaus in health, work, or relationships, Mike and Shane’s proven method empowers sustainable transformation.
A passionate catalyst unlocking leadership in others. Mike has built careers and confidence in thousands, not just across his organization but through guest interviews and speaking engagements—including a featured episode on the Blue‑Collar Leadership series, where he discussed reframing setbacks (“They told me I wasn’t meant for leadership”) and how small, consistent growth propels long‑term success . His approach is rooted in humility, resilience, and a belief that every person has untapped potential. When you hire Mike as your leadership coach, you’re getting more than expertise—you’re getting a proven guide who has lived and led through transformation, and who’s obsessed with helping others do the same.
