http://UnleashYourGroove.com There is not one way to describe a leader, and there is not one way to describe leadership. Mike Veny has found an interesting and entertaining way to build leadership and new leaders. He uses drums.
Some are born with natural leadership qualities and capabilities. History is written by the victor, and that victor is a leader of some sort. It may have been military leadership, diplomatic leadership or some other intangible characteristic that drives a leader and supports the followers. Mike has his drums.
Drums are themselves a form of leadership. Drums are as old as humanity and have had their important place in history as a tool for leadership. Sometimes the drum was a communication tool. Sometimes the drum was a tool to encourage and inspire followers. Either way, there has been a drum of some machination when a leader was necessary.
Mike Veny builds leadership with his drums and drumming circles. He starts each drumming circle as a game, and he is acting as a leader. Some start immediately, some start begrudgingly. All eventually participate actively. The drum circle has various activities; all centered around leadership and leadership development.
The group begins to synergize and team build. As they do, Veny moves further away from the leadership of the drum circle, until he changes the leader. This is where most groups of people are taken well out of their comfort zone. This is also where Veny has led them – on purpose.
It is change that most people are hesitant and resistant to do. What Veny has done while the group has its drum rhythm is prepare the group for this change. More importantly, he has shown the drum circle that change and change in leadership can be a welcomed activity. In addition, the team has learned how a leader can be a facilitator before changing leaders.
Veny is available for corporate retreats, leadership building and team development.

http://www.TransformingStigma.Com In this video, Mike Veny details the birth of Transforming Stigma™. This short speech was recorded as part of a panel on overcoming challenges at the 2014 National Collegiate Entrepreneurs Organization (C-E-O) Conference at the Hyatt Grand Cypress in Orlando, Florida.
First, Mike shares about filing bankruptcy in 2005 and building a career as a drummer after that. Then in 2011, Mike had a mental health breakdown. After reaching out to a friend from the New York State Department of Mental Health for help, she responded with an invitation for him to speak at her conference.
After that first speech, Mike was traveling around the country within a few months, opening up mental health conferences as a keynote speaker. Transforming Stigma™ was born. In the spirit of overcoming challenges, Mike reminds us that sometimes our biggest challenges are our greatest opportunities. Sometimes that thing that you are struggling with can inspire the perfect business idea. The key is being aware and open to it.
Entrepreneurship was always in Mike’s blood, but he never would have thought he’d be marketing the toughest thing of all – his own issues. Although, he never dreamed of being a mental health speaker (who does?), Mike is honored to do this work to help others who are like him. Mike knows what it’s like to feel a lost sense of hope. Mike knows what it’s like to feel pain. Mike knows what it’s like to be scared. This is why he does this work in mental health.
Your greatest challenges can be your greatest opportunities.

How the Mike Veny Brand is Committed to You for the Rest of 2020
2020 has been a different kind of year to say the least. COVID. Racism. Murder hornets (whatever happened to them?). Politics.
As a mental health speaker that focuses on the inclusion of all, I’ve been working hard this year to pivot my work to provide the resources that employers and people need in the middle of the trauma we’re experiencing.
The number of people struggling with anxiety and depression has skyrocketed in 2020. There are many unknowns for the future and it feels like there is tension every way you turn. My brand is all about “helping people receive the gift of emotional wellness”.
So, in this video I’m sharing some of things that the Mike Veny brand has been up to this year and some of the resources that I hope you’ll take advantage of.
In short, this video will show you how the Mike Veny brand is committed to YOU in 2020.
