Richard Marks
I help smart, purpose-driven leaders and teams get from Point A to B in the shortest time possible, with greater clarity, joy, and ease. Leadership and teamwork doesn't have to be hard!
I work primarily with two types of clients: Leaders in transition (frequently women) who want to find their authentic voice, communicate effectively, gain new insights and leadership skills, and grow powerfully into the next stage of their career. These 1:1 coaching clients tell me that they are amazed at the speed of growth and progress they are able to make due to the safe container of trust and support I provide and my skills as a coach. CEO’s and leadership teams of startups or small-mid sized businesses who need to build a culture of high-performance without the petty games and squabbling that naturally occur without outside interventions. These leaders and team members are some of the most intelligent individuals I’ve met, and without healthy communication, conflict resolution, and human relationship skills, persistent problems cannot be successfully resolved which often puts the survival of the organization at risk. My 20+ years’ corporate experience as a facilitator, change management and strategic communications consultant, and Certified Coach complements a lifetime of personal development and strong intuition to give my purpose-driven clients the best of both worlds. As one client said: "I found Richard's direct yet compassionate approach to be one of the most effective at getting results. He is masterful at getting to the core of an issue and clarifying my thought process, saving me months, if not years, of time. By focusing on real-world, practical solutions, he facilitates taking action steps that work."
