Meet Your Guide

  • With roots in a centuries-old art form, theatrical clowning celebrates authenticity, vulnerability, and the “art of being”—qualities that teach performers to connect deeply with audiences through spontaneity and honesty.

    For over a decade, Michaud honed his craft in theatrical clown, performing in public spaces and drawing from the traditions of commedia dell'arte, street performance, and improvisation.

    This experience taught him that true presence isn’t about perfection; it’s about raw, genuine connection.

    After transitioning into leadership development, Michaud spent eight years as a public speaker, trainer, and teacher, channeling his skills into a space that values clarity, confidence, and impact.

    His TEDx Talk, frequent conference engagements, and work creating e-learning modules for companies like LinkedIn Learning have given him unique insights into the skills people need to connect and communicate effectively.

    Michaud’s work with clients involves daily presentations and training, where he brings both practical experience and an element of play and exploration to help others discover and leverage their unique voices.

    The WIN Method is a result of Michaud’s dedication to transforming the art of presenting into a journey of self-discovery, one where speakers don’t just learn to communicate—they learn to captivate.
