About Michael Smith

After 20 years of chasing titles and a career for the sake of a nice salary and an inflated ego, I’ve realised that true success is about more than just material gains. I’m excited to embark on a new chapter in my life and pursue my passion for helping others succeed.

I believe in the power of a smile, a confident handshake, and a friendly hello to build meaningful connections and create a positive impact in the world. My new venture, UseVerb.com, is a tech company that prioritises people over resumes and I’m so excited about the potential for growth and change.

I urge others to dream big and not settle for the status quo. Opportunities like this come once in a lifetime, a road less travelled, and I’m determined to make the most of mine. Let’s work together to bring the magic back to business and remember that it’s not about the work-life balance, it’s about finding the people you enjoy working with and doing what you love on the journey.
