Helping individuals, leaders, and teams unlock their potential through inner leadership—the conscious practice of mastering the mind, regulating the nervous system, optimising health and living from the Inner Core.

Inner Leadership Coaching

Dr. Mark’s contribution, Inner Leadership, was central to the development of the Google Cloud Way of Sales Coaching. The program was rolled-out globally to over a thousand sales leaders. It also went on to win 2 Gold Medals for Leadership Excellence at the Brandon Hall Awards in 2021 for Best Advance in Coaching and Mentoring and for Most Innovative Leadership Development program. The shifts I witnessed in leaders who adopted the practices remains one of my greatest inspirations as a sales coach. I cannot speak highly enough of the quality and importance of what Dr. Mark’s approach to training offers.
