  • Coaching

    Coaching comes from the Hungarian, ‘kocsi’, meaning ‘carriage.’ Back in the 1830’s, Oxford University professors were using their skills to ‘carry’ students through exams and that’s how coaching started to take on its current context. Nowadays, coaching isn’t just for academics. It’s become an essential tool, synonymous with success, for individuals and teams in both sport and business. Coaching and mentoring are a secret sauce for driving personal improvement. A robust coaching framework invokes self reflection and commitment. It simultaneously allows powerful feedback and candour through vulnerability and trust. That’s where the magic really happens! Implement strategic coaching and mentoring, or invest to certify your own leaders as coaches.

    I had the privilege of being coached and trained by Mark back in 2008. Mark is so talented at what he does and gave me a great first impression. Fast-forward 13 years I contacted Mark as I needed a great Coach and Mentor for n a team of Course Advisors, Marketing Executives and Customer Service Agents. Mark excelled in the virtual space with high energy coaching and his charismatic approach had everyone highly engaged. Since the training and coaching I have received a tremendous amount of positive feedback from the team. The training has been so effective that we are working on further plans with Mark. I highly recommend Mark to any business thinking of re-igniting their staff potential.

    I first discovered Mark Carter’s work through his first book ‘Ignite your potential’ and soon became my ‘go to’ book for both my personal development and professional life. I even started to refer to it as my bible. I would use it to direct me back on track and inspire me when I needed a push both personally and professionally. I then sat in on several of his training workshops and booked him for a day workshop for the hotel I was working with and he completely turned around our workplace culture, a huge success. It was then I purchased his second book ‘Add Value’ and it changed my perspective and mindset about what I wanted and what I’ll hold value to both personally and professionally. I recently joined Marks Academy during my downtime of Covid19 to prepare for the next role in my career. I am currently focusing on Coaching, Presentation skills, sales skills, and leadership development. I have access to the academy and I am additionally doing workshops, being coached one on one, and Mark keeps the coaching exciting, informative, and inspiring and makes it relevant to my field of hospitality.

    When I think of Mark “MC” Carter, the first word that springs to mind is “Authenticity.” What you see is what you get with MC without any filters. I believe this trait to be extremely important and sets MC apart. He is one of the best sales training facilitators and coaches that I have come across. Through his own unique style of delivering content, he brings about a high level of engagement amongst participants. He challenges individuals to stretch themselves but is genuinely interested in seeing them continually improve. MC delivers his content with passion and energy combining best practices in sales with behavioural insight to tremendously add value. What distinguishes MC apart from anyone else is the fact that he is approachable, personable and is deeply interested in getting the best out of you. These coaching characteristics coupled with the mastery he has in the delivery of his content make MC an asset to any organisation he is a part of. He comes to each session prepared and tailors training content specifically to his audience. I highly recommend MC as a sales trainer, presenter, personal development specialist or executive coach to businesses and individuals alike. The energy and positivity he brings will be contagious. Professionally, I have enjoyed my interactions with MC and believe his high performance sales training framework has positively impacted my role. On a personal note, I have found MC to have many interesting and worldly insights, act with integrity but also consider him a friend. Keep being inspirational MC – ‘onwards & upwards!
