Michael Brown – New Instructor Spotlight

1. You are the newest instructor at the BG5 Business Institute. Can you tell us a little about yourself?

In 2005, I discovered Human Design and instantly felt drawn to it. Within a month of finding out about Design, I had my first Foundation Reading and started my professional training. At first, I wasn’t sure if I wanted to be a Human Design Analyst or a teacher. But everything changed when I earned my analyst certification and started helping Becky Markley as one of the first BG5 teachers at the IHDS. After a few years, I also became a BG5BI Instructor.

I recently created two new classes for the IHDS: Fear Code and Creative Code. These classes assist students in addressing their fears and enhancing their creativity using Human Design.

I am a 2/4 Express Builder with seven open Functions. Over the past 18 years, I have gained a deep understanding of the significance of being highly sensitive to the world around me.

My openness has enabled me to become more conscious of both my own and others’ shadow patterns. It is a helpful ability that I have cultivated, for which I am grateful to Human Design and BG5!

2. How has learning about H.D. and BG5 helped you in your professional life?

I have a diverse professional background as a teacher, facilitator, coach, H.D. analyst, and BG5 consultant. Understanding my Design has been crucial and has taught me how to excel with different client populations. Without knowing my Career Design, I would have been much less effective.

After conducting hundreds of client sessions, I have realized the importance of knowing oneself and how one functions for success.

I enjoy the experience of introducing someone to their Design for the first time and witnessing their sense of wonder and amazement. I am still amazed at how accurately Human Design and BG5 teach clients about their own operation.


3. You’ve worked with many different teams and groups; who have been the most enjoyable and challenging to work with?

Working in the corporate sector can be challenging. I have experience working with various corporate teams such as a team-building facilitator and trainer. From my observations, I have noticed that many leaders genuinely care about their teams, but may lack the necessary knowledge to effectively support them.

One of the most fulfilling aspects of my career was being an Orientation Leader for prestigious MBA schools like MIT and Dartmouth University in the United States. Interacting with talented and ambitious young leaders constantly keeps you alert and engaged.


4. What do you like most about teaching?

Teaching is a passion of mine. I truly love it and hold a deep respect for the student’s journey.

I have a clear memory of my early days studying Human Design and realizing the transformative nature of this System. It’s not just about acquiring knowledge of various keynotes and concepts. Learning Human Design has the power to fundamentally change you. It’s a system that profoundly shifts your perception of the world!

I am thrilled to be back at the BG5 Business Institute, teaching once again. After taking a break to pursue other professional endeavors for a few years, I am delighted to return to teaching.
