Personal Details

Bio

I’ve been in the people business for 25 plus years, I’ve dedicated my life to helping others realize their potential and build successful teams and business through leadership training and teambuilding. It’s why I wake up in the morning, and it’s the last thing I think about before I sleep.

As a Certified Emotional Intelligence Coach, and John Maxwell Team Coach I help you concentrate on self-awareness, relationships, vision, and values that lead to your success. I observe you in action, interview you as well to understand the challenges you have personally and professionally in order to establish the best plan for resolution. I know how you feel and you’re not alone. With more than 25 years of consulting management. I’ve worked with everyone from managers to C-Level employees from Fortune 500 companies and small businesses.

Team Building

This presentation is developed from the John Maxwell 17 Indisputable Laws of team building. I will introduce proven concepts to help you build and maintain successful teams. The principles have widespread application that is simple to grasp, retain, and put into action. Whether in marriage, athletics, or business, teamwork paves the way to success. What leaders can do in tandem with a great team far outpaces what they can accomplish on their own. Once one learns to rally the right people around a shared vision, his/her influence truly begins to take flight. This presentation has team building stories, exercises, and engaging videos.

Emotional Intelligence - Creating Strong Teams

This presentation is about communication. When we go into our work environments, there are extroverts, introverts, ambiverts, and just plain ole people. My training is going to help you to understand each personality type, and how to recognize different emotions. When you understand your emotions, can communicate them and how to recognize others, teams can work better together. Why you ask, well it's simple when we understand the elements we respect each more, because we have affective communication.

Takeaways:
How to Communicate in a Way that's Kind, Candid & Constructive
Self-Awareness of Your Conflict Style and that of Your Peers

Creating Accountability

In this presentation, I help companies support their teams with empowering an environment of accountability and developing interdependency awareness. Accountability is hard for people to except, and pointing the finger, someone watching your every move immediately comes to mind. This can cause a lot of frustration, anger, disfunction and lose of productivity, which means profits are affected as well. Thesaurus.com's first synonym for hold accountable is "place blame for wrongdoing." Not exactly positive, joy-filled culture material, however without accountability, things get stressful really fast. Subpar behavior or performance becomes normal, and accepted.

Takeaways:

Develop Camaraderie
Break down of communication silos
Character building

Leading with Emotional Intelligence focuses on a triangle of leadership concept. Leadership is influence nothing more nothing, less however how does the CEO, VPs, Directors, and Managers get employees to follow them? Well that is where my presentation of WrightMentality - Leading with Emotional Intelligence comes into play. I use the triangle key components, Logic, Authentic, and Empathy. This presentation breaks each component down with examples, exercises, and role playing to get the Leader ready to lead the team players.

  • I worked with Marcus in discovery of the speaking--leadership style for the participants invited to speak on one if the US's largest speaking platforms. He is an excellent listener and hones in on key words from initial intake and assessment. Marcus gives excellent perspective and offers alternative ways to view things. Every session was actionable, and kept participants accountable by assigning tasks and to-do's which needed practice using different tools in specific situations. I've had the privilege to work previously with other coaches and none of them came close to the kind of impact Marcus had during our time together.
