—- WHO HE IS
The short version — and the full picture
Dr. Michael T. George is an executive leader, keynote speaker, and three-time published author whose work sits at the intersection of organizational performance, strategic leadership, and human potential.
He is the creator of The Detour Advantage™ — a practical framework developed and applied across multiple industries during real moments of pressure, change, and uncertainty. His forthcoming book of the same name is currently under negotiation with a literary agent and is scheduled for publication in 2026.
As VP of Engineering & Technology at Avoq and founder of the Software-as-a-Service platforms ytxt.me and Revyewed, Dr. George brings a rare combination of enterprise executive experience and technical depth to every engagement. His work is grounded in one core belief: that the path forward is always available — most people simply don’t know how to read the signs that point to it.
His three previously published books — through Post Hill Press, distributed by Simon & Schuster — have drawn endorsements from US Senators, retired military generals, and national civic leaders. He speaks nationally to corporate, executive, and faith-based audiences, with every engagement crafted specifically for the event and the room.

ENDORSEMENTS
What leaders and public figures say
“We spend much of our lives focused on the destination, only to discover that the greatest lessons are often found in the unexpected turns along the way. In The Detour Advantage, Michael George provides a compelling roadmap for transforming adversity into opportunity and uncertainty into momentum. This book will resonate with leaders, dreamers, and anyone facing a road they didn’t plan to travel.”

THE DETOUR ADVANTAGE™
“Most of us have experienced a moment when the path forward suddenly disappears. Michael George has written the book I wish existed during some of the hardest decisions of my own career. This is not a motivational book. It is a manual for clear thinking and decisive action in the moments that matter most.”

Former President, The Heritage Foundation
