Massimo Backus is on a mission to help one million people believe they are worthy and enough. Like many ambitious leaders, Massimo Backus faced early struggles with impostor syndrome and a relentless inner critic. Dyslexia was one of the main drivers for his insecurities and later, his perfectionism. The practice of self-compassion helped him see that what was considered a disability was actually cognitive diversity. Facilitator, speaker and leadership coach, Massimo Backus provides no-BS one-on-one coaching with open-minded and committed senior leaders and he runs transformative programs with organizations that are serious about change. His fifteen-plus years of experience in talent development and leadership coaching have given him a front-row seat to observe company cultures in the US, UK, and Canada, while working with 3,000+ emerging and seasoned leaders in mid-size and Fortune 500 companies including Cisco, Accenture, Slalom, Salesforce, Nintendo, Amazon and Fox Entertainment. Massimo holds a Bachelor's degree in Psychology and a master's in Organizational Psychology from Claremont Graduate University with professional coaching education through The Co-Active Training Institute. Massimo often wears suits but has tattoos and speaks from his heart. He’s an award-winning documentary filmmaker and loves to tell life’s great stories. These days he finds creative inspiration in his roles as father and husband.
