Lead Your Team with Confidence
As a leader, your team looks to you for expertise, vision and confidence. But it’s not an easy road fulfilling the role of leader, no matter what level of leadership, the size of the team or the complexity of the organization.
Start with either Mission Statement Made Simple. When you create a mission statement and build out your Guiding Principles, you (and your team) will get:
— Full alignment of your team which leads to greater productivity and less wasted energy
— Clarity around what characteristics you want your team to exhibit and a better understanding of the types of people you want to hire
— Decreased turnover — when your team has clarity about the mission, they tend to stick around
Next, Let’s Unpack Your “Why”
Once your team is clear about the mission, move on to Hero On a Mission to unleash your own sense of purpose & productivity.
Develop your simple life plan, bringing clarity and meaning to your goals in life & business.
Leadership Development That Gets Results
Donald Miller says, “There are four characters in every story: The victim, the villain, the hero, and the guide. These four characters live inside us. If we play the victim, we’re doomed to fail. If we play the villain, we will not create genuine bonds. But if we play the hero or guide, our lives will flourish.
Dig in to become self-aware enough to know which character you are playing. Then make the changes that lead to purpose and meaning.
We are the guide in your corner to help you in the fight. Equal parts transformational and practical, this Plan will propel you forward with motivation and focus.

Testimonials
Kind words from great clients & colleagues.
I had the pleasure of working with Marc. He is an exceptional leader with strong interpersonal skills, a unique capacity for empathy, and a high sense of integrity. His gentle demeanor and “win-win” approach at business negotiations and partner development are only eclipsed by his keen strategic mind and strong work ethic. He is team and service oriented and always mindful of the bottom line. Marc was an asset to our organization and I highly recommend him to any employer seeking a strong leader.

Marc is one of the brightest minds I’ve ever worked with when it comes to branding, storytelling, and crafting a unique message. He understands how to clearly position and articulate a company’s values, beliefs, and core strengths, and tell it in a way that a consumer will comprehend. In my experience, it’s difficult to find someone who is both equally gifted in brand strategy, and creative direction, and Marc is exactly that.

Jamie Johnson, Executive Director
Marshall Foundation for Community Health
Marc has the unique ability of arriving at an organization and turning marketing chaos into revenue growth within a short amount of time. He quickly identifies short term opportunities to produce “quick wins” — while at the same time developing winning marketing strategies that are sustainable. The results of implementing his “marketing blueprint” are remarkable and I recommend him. Marc is a great leader and has been both a professional and personal mentor to me.

Over more than a decade, I’ve had the pleasure of working with Marc Fey in several professional capacities related to marketing, and I couldn’t be more impressed. Direct, proactive, creative, insightful and a natural leader who is a joy to be around, Marc brings integrity and vision to every project in which he’s involved.
Sean Harvey, Senior Writer

I had the pleasure of working with Marc both in my role at the The Institute for Digital Transformation and as a member of the board with itSMF USA. Marc was a great inspiration to me in terms of how marketing should really be done. He approached it authentically, creatively and with a commitment to do good, while promoting the brand effectively. And this approach produced significant results! I believe this stems from his character as a person. He is one of the nicest, most open, insightful and thoughtful people I’ve had the pleasure of meeting and with which to work. I highly endorse Marc on every level.

Several years ago I went through the StoryBrand workshop. It was revolutionary in my approach to promotional material and for our website. But, I found it very difficult in writing my own copy. Marc Fey enabled me to finally articulate the answers to the 7 essential categories of story in order to upgrade our website.

The Noble Heart
Forbes’ “Top 10 Qualities that Make a Great Leader” include the following: honesty, ability to delegate, communication, sense of humor, confidence, commitment, positive attitude, creativity, intuition, and ability to inspire. Without exception, Marc excels at all of these qualities. Finding the balance between fun and productivity can be elusive for many leaders, but not to him. Thus, his energized, affirmed, empowered team will go the extra mile to achieve objectives — and the results speak for themselves.

Clarity is what I was looking for with my Mortgage in Davis brand and “Clarity” is what I got with the helping hand of Marc Fey. Marc is a true professional and I am impressed with his endless availability and commitment to his clients.
