      <image:title>About - Hello! I’m Michael North</image:title>
      <image:caption>Mentor at heart and leader in practice, I’ve spent nearly two decades building customer success and support organizations that thrive. My approach is rooted in clarity, systems, and empowerment — whether leading enterprise escalations, designing documentation strategies, or coaching people into leadership roles. Over the years, I’ve helped SaaS teams navigate growth, acquisitions, and high-stakes escalations. Along the way, I built knowledge systems that shortened onboarding, introduced automation that freed teams to focus on meaningful work, and created workflows that preserved revenue while giving executives clearer visibility into customer health. Just as important, I’ve coached engineers and CSMs into confident leaders who went on to shape teams of their own. As a certified personal trainer and nutrition coach, I carry this same philosophy into health and fitness. I believe professional success and personal health are inseparable — the strongest leaders are those who take care of themselves first, modeling resilience and focus for the teams they lead. For me, leadership is about building sustainable systems — in business and in life — that allow people to thrive long-term.</image:caption>
