In the world of business, service, and sales, no matter how confident, competent or experienced you are, setbacks are a part of every process. How well you handle those failures, challenges and problems will often determine how successful you are going to be.
Michael Licenblat is a resilience expert who teaches people how to achieve more in high-pressure environments by bouncing back from pressures, setbacks, and rejections.
Born into a family of entrepreneurial parents, Michael grew up working inside the numerous family businesses and quickly learnt that success often came to those who can ride the bumps, get up, and keep going.
Over 20 years ago, Michael became one of the pioneers in building a successful natural therapies business through overcoming market rejection, refusals, and knock backs.
Drawing on his background in Psychology, Shiatsu therapy, and over 25 years of Martial Arts experience, Michael has helped countless companies become 'pressure proof' and learn how to bounce back from the setbacks and rejections so they can out-achieve their competition.
In Michael's upbeat, interactive and hands on presentations, he takes you into the world of reading 'pressure patterns' and building personal resilience so that you walk away with practical ideas on how to 'keep your drive alive'. Michael is the author of 'Pressure Proof – how to thrive in time of disruption, change, and pressure'.
His articles are regularly published in several journals and, among his clients, he has delivered presentations to Toyota, Chemmart, REIV, Coles Myer Ltd., Pitcher Partners, St George, Smartline, SEEK, Hocking Stuart, Maurice Blackburn Lawyers, Maunsell, SalesForce, and the Victorian Parliament.

"We usually only have speakers from within the real estate industry speak at our events, however the choice to bring in Michael Licenblat, an external speaker, has proven to be an excellent choice. Michael quickly engaged our group and showed that he understood our industry. Michael's resilience presentation was both entertaining and hands on, giving our property management teams some practical communication tips, and self management tools, that will add great value to their relationships with their clients. I look forward to working with you again."
