A Proven Process Combined With Real World Experience

In addition to teaching these tools, Mark has lived his life by applying them. At the age of 19, while attaining his B.S. from Fordham University in Business Administration with essentially no money, no experience, and no contacts, he established his first company where he published sports magazines for colleges. He set goals, honed his focus, and learned to overcome numerous obstacles as he built the business and the team. In seven years, Mark had licensing agreements to represent college sports teams from New York to California. The success inspired him to start his training and coaching firm in 1988.

 

History of Success

More importantly, his results can be DUPLICATED.

 

Change Your Mindset and You Change Productivity and Profitability

For example, through coaching, Mark helped a local office supply company completely change the process of how management viewed and communicated with their customers. This resulted in a 400% increase in sales, an average customer service score of 9+ on a scale of 10 all while simultaneously reducing costs. In a sea of over 10,000 independent office supply firms, Bulk Office Supply now ranks in the Top 50.

 

Lost over 100 Pounds and a Renewed Sense of Purpose

Teams are made up of people and Mark's approach of helping people develop clarity on their goals, the courage to pursue them, as well as more energy and vibrancy to pursue them, results in a renewed sense of PURPOSE. For instance, one of Mark's coaching clients was going through the motions of working. By helping him gain clarity and connect to his purpose, he created the breakthrough of simultaneously renewing professional, personal and PHYSICAL goals. This multilevel breakthrough resulted in professional success as well as his client's weight loss of over 100 pounds. The shift was life changing, not to mention literally life saving. There are numerous examples of how we have helped coach teams and managers to develop their people.

Improve Influence, Improve Communication, and Improve Connection

We all have the ability to connect on a deeper level. Even when communicating with those "not like us", whether it be age, gender, or differences on beliefs and values, we can RECONNECT. Especially with those most significant in our lives. Whether it is your significant other, your children, or a family member, the ability to drop "wrongs" of the past and reconnect with a fresh start is priceless. Communication in the business world: The Texas Association of School Boards needed to have older superintendents shift their communication style to better connect with, and better coach a younger generation of superintendents. The coaching process led to each generation hearing, respecting and "getting one another" thus leveraging everyones productivity.

 

Over Come Your Fears and Create A New Start

Southwest University had a series of on-premises programs combined with comprehensive mini follow-up sessions for admission counselors who worked with students who were often blocked by fears and disempowering beliefs. Our process taught them the communication and coaching skills required to have applicants believe in themselves and take the steps needed move forward with their education. Coaching the applicants to take action on changing their lives rather than telling them was a game changer. The satisfaction of everyone involved was so high they had record enrollment for January, February and March 2017 and continued to shatter records throughout the year.

These processes allow your coach to help you uncover the triggers as well as answers to recurring problems, then drill down to a root cause, and develop a solution that resolves the issue while bolstering personnel confidence and communication skills.

 

A.1 Evaluation

All coaching is customized to each individual and to the needs they are looking to solve or value team is seeking. To create a customized solution, the first step is to evaluate where you are and where you want to go. While speaking with your coach, we focus first on the objectives you are looking to facilitate for your life, your family or your team and then have you develop clarity on the outcome desired. Each person is treated as an individual. ¬No one-size-fits-all approach used.

Together we develop your coaching program, we create a specific matrix of key variables that will allow you track progress, excel, and be at your best.

As part of helping you evolve into the person that achieves all the desire the coaching matrix has you assess where you are and the most realistic way to quickly get to the next level. In the process, you develop clarity on both your best attributes and where you need further development to "PLAY" at your highest level. Because you are PRO-Actively participating in the self- assessment, you feel; good about your strengths, more confident, and that allows them to openly assess what is needed to play at an even higher level.

You KNOW, Feel, and believe you are FULLY capable while simultaneously being supportively challenged to work past life's obstacles in order to create a breakthrough to higher levels of goal achievement and success.

 

A.2 Determination of Course of Action

By not using a cookie-cutter approach Mark Anthony and his team of coaches, has a unique course of action for each individual. Years of experience, taking others along similar journeys, and the self-assessment allow us to see how to tailor coaching case studies, topics and exercises. Although each coaching follows a formal process, based on our 25 years of experience the emphasis of topics is tailored to the needs of the situation and problem being solved.

 

A.3 Plan and Process Development

When developing your roadmap, we assess if the challenges are being created due to a lack of specific skills, outside forces, individual mindset, or a combination. For example, someone is lacking clarity on their goals, is there a set of best practices tied to efficiency or productivity that they might be missing. By utilizing examples and situations specific and 100% relevant to you, the COACHING process has CONTEXT. So much of success is based on communication whether it be the external dialogue or internal dialogue of your inner circle, family, or team members. Based on what strengths and weaknesses have been uncovered influences which questions and tools your new coaches will use.

A series of weekly meeting will have you continually moving forward. Achieving your goals and having YOU in CONTROL of YOUR NEXT STEP.
