John De Marco

For more than a decade I have worked with professionals at every level of leadership, and have a specific focus on health care, business and higher education leaders who feel "stuck" and want fresh approaches for greater success. This core clientele focus dovetails with my passion for holistic health, sustainable job growth and innovative learning delivery models, respectively.

Overall, I serve my clients through four core areas of coaching experience and competencies:

In addition to my main focus on executive coaching, I offer manager coaching, life coaching, consulting and facilitation services. Currently, in addition to my external clientele, I serve as an internal executive coach and consultant for a large corporation with more than 30 million customers and 35,000 employees. My work involves partnering with senior leaders to develop comprehensive goals, strategies and tactics that support operational execution and create a framework for linking talent development to business results. I create and facilitate leadership training as well.

Previously, I held a similar position with the 6,000-employee Health First Inc. of Central Florida, a health care system featuring three hospitals, a health insurance unit, dozens of physician offices and numerous fitness and ancillary services. I partnered with physicians, executive, nursing directors and managers on a daily basis to help develop strategies and improve leadership competencies. I've also delivered keynotes and workshops to numerous organizations.
