Michael Bungay Stanier

Michael Bungay Stanier is the founder and Senior Partner of Box of Crayons.

Michael was the 2006 Canadian Coach of the Year. He was a Rhodes Scholar at Oxford University, and holds a Masters of Philosophy from Oxford, and law and arts degrees with highest honors from the Australian National University.

He created Get Unstuck & Get Going on the stuff that matters, a multi-award-winning coaching program and tool that’s being used in organizations around the world. Leading management thinker Peter Block says it has “a quiet political message in it that coaching is available to all of us and is not a profession but a way of being with each other.”

He also created The Eight Irresistible Principles of Fun and The 5 3/4 Questions You’ve Been Avoiding, short internet movies that have been seen by well over a million people in at least 175 countries around the world.

Great Work

Great Work is the work that matters, inspires, stretches and provokes. This is both a place of deep comfort – “the flow zone” – and discomfort. The comfort comes from its connection, its “sight line” to what matters most to you. The discomfort comes because the work is new, is challenging and as a result there’s an element of risk and possible failure – and it is work that matters, work that you care about.

- It’s the stuff you dreamed about when you first started this career.

- It’s changing the world.

- It’s making a difference.

- It’s going home at the end of the day feeling good about yourself because you know that today, you made the impossible happen. And that mattered to other people.

You know the feeling. You’ve probably had a few of these moments in your life. You’ve had times when you felt alive, passionate and powerful because you knew that you had just done something really great. That’s Great Work!

Get back on track. Get that feeling again. All the time. Every day.

We’re betting you like your line of work – it’s why you’re still in it. And we’re not here to convince you to change your job. But deep down, you probably wish that you spent more of your day working on the projects that really matter.

The Find Your Great Work seminar

- Helps you get back to that passion.

- Helps you remember the excitement you had during the first days of your career.

- Helps you bring that back to what you do.
