When Johannes Leonardo was seeking a consultant/coach to guide us through our development of our DE&I curriculum, and to lead us through the initial stages of the training, we sought out Marc S. Strachan at Coach Marc Consulting. Marc proved to be a great partner. He helped us address some very difficult conversations around race, and specific diversity, equity and inclusion issues. His training was insightful, courageous, and dynamic. We look forward to working with him in the future, and highly recommend him as a consultant in these matters.
Client perspectives
Trusted counsel.
Meaningful impact.
The measure of the work is what changes afterward—how leaders think, how teams engage, and how organizations move forward.

What clients say
about the partnership.
Marc is a rare breed. Passionate, fearless and inspirational in his delivery and communication, Marc has the ability to create belief in an individual, a team or a room and have people thinking and acting differently as a result. Moreover, his values run deep; he’s the model of integrity, and is never afraid of speaking the truth to power. He does this all in a super-collaborative way, creating strong bonds, friendships and authentic partnerships to overcome the most difficult obstacles and to move agendas forward.
Marc continues to stand out as one of the most influential and valued mentors of my career. Nobody packs as much punch, or has such laser-focused, impactful—and immediately actionable—insights as he does. I will forever be grateful for how much ground we traveled and the aperture he helped widen for me in only 30 fast minutes, without even knowing me prior. Thank you, Marc!
Marc is speaking truth from experience … Jump in for breakthrough coaching.
Words cannot express how much I admire and respect Marc Strachan. He is an exceptional leader, brilliant marketer and a seasoned strategic thinker. He has the natural ability to challenge and stretch you to the max while at the same time creating a comfortable and fun work environment. He is hilarious with a capital “H” and can tell a story like no other. He has been a client for over 10 years and I can honestly say he has been one of the best. I value our professional relationship and would highly recommend him to serve on any senior executive/management team.
Mr. Strachan is the pure manifestation of wisdom. He’s Yoda and Nick Fury wrapped into real-world human form. I’ve had the privilege of seeing his leadership across multiple organizations, specifically the 4A’s MAIP and ADCOLOR. More so, I’ve had the privilege of having him as a coach and mentor during the hardest time I’ve ever had in my professional career.
Immense gratitude to the American Advertising Federation and the AHOA nominating committee for selecting me to this year’s class of inductees. And a special thank you to Marc S. Strachan. I walk the path you have pioneered and paved.
