Mark Langford

I am a "functional" coach who goes far beyond hourly coaching and mentoring sessions. I jump in and help wherever needed to facilitate your success, for example:

- Re-write/improve your résumé
- Create/improve your online presence (e.g., LinkedIn, Twitter, Facebook)
- Make meaningful introductions into my extensive network of contacts
- Provide interview training
- Conduct research on your behalf
- Develop business & marketing plans
... all at no extra cost! My main interest is to see people who want to make a difference succeed in their endeavor.
The tools, techniques and approach that I use have landed me positions on Wall Street, with hot start-ups and Fortune-500 companies, gained me entrance into at top tier MBA program, helped attract a wonderful wife and now allow me to pursue a career helping others to unlock and realize their personal passions. I recently authored a book that details my methodology entitled “Thank God It’s Wednesday! A Business Professional’s Guide to Creating More Time & Space for Personal Passions and Life/Work Balance.”

I partner with an intuitive energy reader and well-established coach (who doubles as my wife!). If you so desire, Claudia can lead a session that creates alignment, integration and activation at an energetic level. It's really an amazing process that often creates dynamic and lasting change. Most coaches focus only on the practical and entirely neglect the behind-the-scenes energy work. Our collective offer is unique in the coaching world as it provides a truly holistic approach that combines practical and intuitive guidance and results in turbo charged progress for clients. It’s really like having two coaches for the price of one!

TESTIMONIALS

"Before I started working with Mark, I felt paralyzed by the difficult decisions I had to make relating to my life and career. Mark has provided me with a systematic way to approach these decisions.

I think everyday we doubt ourselves and our abilities in small ways. Over time, we let these doubts become beliefs that limit our choices. Part of Mark's process is to take these beliefs and deconstruct them, which has been very useful for me (it turned out that I had a lot of these beliefs).

One thing that I think separates Mark from a lot of other career consultants is his vast knowledge and diverse network. Each week before our session Mark sends me an extensive email filled with resources that he thinks might be useful for me to look at, questions to ask myself, and contacts in his network that he thinks might be useful to activate.

Mark has also helped me setup a timeline to achieve my career goals. Every week, he identifies exercises or tasks that I should do that relate to my goals. I was amazed at how much this helped improve my productivity and confidence with my career exploration.

I can thank Mark enough and I highly recommend him!"

"When I went looking for help, Mark stood out like a sore thumb. There was energy in his words that touched me from his profile. Something just felt right and I hoped it was real. It turned out to be very real - the way he popped up in my life and took time to help me. I was had a bunch of disorganized ideas and mark helped me sort everything out quickly. He also introduced me to his wife, Claudia, who was able help connect on a whole new level. They profoundly helped me to 'clear the smoke' and I love them for that!"

"Before I hired Mark I was stuck in a job that was paying the bills but felt like torture. I was neither 100% sure what I wanted to do, nor did I feel that I could afford to leave the position. Mark introduced me to his 3-month Life on Purpose program which he facilitates with his wife and partner coach, Claudia. Even after the first session, I felt like I had been given a secret shortcut to to a whole new life. Through their progressive program, I gained tremendous clarity around the work that would be a perfect fit for me. I gained a vision that was more expansive than anything I could have possibly conceived by myself. Mark then supported me in every aspect of the practical details of bringing my new vision to life. He FAR exceeded my highest expectations and held my hand the whole way through. For example, Mark re-wrote my resume and made extremely helpful introductions into his extensive network. He checked in often and even did research on alternative career options for me -- I've never worked with a coach before who took that much initiative (and I've worked with several) -- amazing!

I can tell you that I absolutely love my new career path and outlook on life, that I feel more self-confident, and finally feel like I have arrived at my "sweet spot" (where I get to use all of my talents and abilities). I can't thank Mark and Claudia enough for what they have done for me and recommend them 110% if you are looking to get clear on your calling and then to make it a reality. I've never worked with a husband/wife coaching team before and it has been a truly holistic, and surprisingly healing, experience for me."

“His experience largely speaks for itself but he is additionally thoughtful, possesses extremely keen insights, and more than willing to be hands-on in order to get the job done right - a rare combination. He is focused on results and a lot of fun to work with. I highly recommend Mark as a seasoned career and life coach.”
