Congratulations on your decision to seek out the guidance of a committed, caring, and consistent coach! With Step #1 of a very important process now out of the way, the question becomes: Who do you hire? And why?
Not all coaches, consultants, and programs are created equal. After 20 years of dedicated service to his clients, Marcus has become one of the most sought-after coaches by individuals and companies around the world.
You’ve come to the right place. Let’s get acquainted and see if working together is right for YOU.
Marcus Straub is a Certified Value-Added Associate for Targeted Training International (TTI), Inc and Certified Facilitator for Indigo Education Company. In 2011 he was recognized as “International Coach of the Year” by The Coaching Institute (originally known as Comprehensive Coaching University) and remains the only coach to be nominated for three consecutive years.

It is a winning formula and Marcus is a winning choice.”

An Agent of Change
“Marcus is an agent of change in ones heart. He communicates in ways most cannot and lifts your spirit with wisdom and peace. It is because he walks this way, that he can guide you with confidence and grace. I was lost in my own mind and caught in a trap of self deception and sabotage when I hired Marcus. In 5 focused meetings he changed my path forever. I am grateful and will always recommend his guidance to those willing to grow. Thanks Marcus!”
Patrick Bland, Owner/Head Coach, Crossfit Red

My students can spot insincerity a mile away, and Marcus not only passes their litmus test, he engages the students in productive applications of their learning within literally a minute. By being realistic and positive, Marcus helps students to learn the important lessons necessary to be successful. I find his approach dynamic and the results immediate.”

Marcus Leads by Example.
“Marcus leads by example, which is perhaps his defining feature.
He is a skillful life communicator, who asks the right questions, pays attention and gives incredible feedback. Marcus is gentle in receiving what I see, what I fear, what I hope, but he also holds me accountable.
Marcus works with those he comes to know, to not just take the time to identify what would make life more fulfilling, but to also make it happen.
He is willing to help, but endeavors to assist all of us in becoming our own advocate in this life, and that´s a powerful perspective with which to interact with the world.”
Rebecca Teitelbaum
Seek Balance and Harmony to Thrive in 2025
As a business owner, you are the foundation of your enterprise. The more energized, inspired and balanced you are, the stronger your company will be. Tremendous amounts of time, energy and effort go into running a business. With everything there is to do, it is easy for those who own a business to sacrifice many aspects of their personal life, if not entirely, in the pursuit of the happiness and success they seek.
Live your life with the intention of creating harmony among its differing aspects, and you will not only be successful, but perhaps more importantly, you will be happy.
Don’t Allow Personality Conflicts to Go Unresolved
Personality conflicts hurt businesses by contributing to a decline in trust, communication, collaboration, teamwork and morale. In turn, efficiency, productivity, culture, team-member satisfaction, retention, business growth and bottom-line profits are all negatively impacted. The degree to which team members do not communicate effectively and collaborate is one of the greatest obstacles to business success.
We are all unique and different, and we won’t always agree. However, when strategic investments are made in helping team members understand themselves and each other better, acceptance of differences becomes easier, and effective communication and teamwork become the norm.
Improve Operations and Profitability with Assessments
A very real challenge business owners face in building a solid team is a lack of credible, unbiased information. When considering the future growth of your business, having clear, unbiased and accurate information that positions you to build and develop the best team possible is a key ingredient to your success.
• Are you looking for a way to hire correctly the first time, reduce turnover and increase retention?
• Do you wish you had access to clear-cut information that would allow you to place your team members in positions where they would be the most effective and the happiest?
• Do you want to enhance engagement and productivity?
• Would discovering the specific areas for the training and professional development that would deliver the greatest return on your investment appeal to you?
If you answered yes to any one of these questions, then accurate, nonbiased, comprehensive and Equal Employment Opportunity Commission compliant assessments may be just what you need.
