A Word From Dr. Mike
Education
I earned my M.S. in Administrative Leadership (2012) and Ph.D. in Adult Education with a focus on Human Resource Development (HRD) (2016) from the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee.
Background
Since 2011, I’ve immersed myself in the world of HRD as a practitioner, consultant, and researcher and have published more than 50 book chapters, journal articles, and conference proceedings examining leadership development and training, career transitions, employee onboarding, and organization development. Over that time, I have served as director of three non-profit organizations; provided consultation services to dozens of for-profit, government, and non-profit organizations; and developed and coached 1,000s of aspiring, mid-level, and senior organization leaders.
Founders Remarks
Did you know we spend 1/3rd of our lives at work?!?!? That’s A LOT of time with coworkers and an incredible time commitment toward performing various job responsibilities. We should work to find a greater sense of purpose and satisfaction in what we do—and who we do it with. We simply need to invest in and embrace the opportunity to develop our team and ourselves.
About Dr. Mike Kirchner, Founder
I've seen firsthand the incredible impact on employees' growth and performance when organizations invest in their development. The powerful transformations drove me to found Time for Development in July 2017. As a leadership and human resource development expert, I am deeply committed to helping organizations and their people thrive together. I envision workplaces where leaders know how and are committed to leading exceptional teams and organizations, and I'm on a mission to reimagine how we think about, experience, and behave at work. Together, we can create a workplace where everyone flourishes and finds true satisfaction in their work.
