About Marc Corsini
I help CEOs, business owners, and senior executives become better leaders, build stronger organizations, and live more meaningful lives.
For more than 30 years, I have worked alongside business leaders facing the challenges that come with growth, responsibility, and success. While every engagement begins with a business opportunity or leadership challenge, the conversation often extends beyond strategy and performance. It also includes relationships, purpose, faith, personal growth, and the question every leader eventually faces:
What does success really look like?
My role is not to tell people what to do. It is to help them think more clearly, see their blind spots, challenge their assumptions, and make better decisions. Through executive coaching, consulting, and Vistage peer advisory groups, I create environments where leaders can have honest conversations, learn from one another, and grow both professionally and personally.
I believe leadership is an inside-out journey. Business success matters, but it becomes far more meaningful when it is aligned with what matters most in life. That belief inspired my 7 F’s of True Success framework and my four books on leadership, balance, and personal development.
Today, I serve as a Vistage Chair, leading CEO and Key Executive peer groups in Alabama while continuing to coach executives and business owners across a variety of industries. The greatest privilege of my work is watching leaders become not only more successful, but also more grounded, more self-aware, and more fulfilled.
As I enter what I call the Fourth Quarter of life, I find myself increasingly focused on significance over success, relationships over accomplishments, and impact over recognition. My goal is simple: to help people become the best version of themselves while living a life they are proud to call their own.
My wife Susan and I live in Birmingham, Alabama. We are blessed with three children, a growing circle of lifelong friendships, and opportunities to serve others through our faith and community.
Success is not just what you accomplish. It is who you become along the way.

All In (Part 1 of 2)
I came across a fun word the other day. Stickability. It refers to a person’s ability to persevere with something. It’s about commitment. It’s about staying power. And staying power, I believe, is one of the most important keys to success. I was reminded of this when...
The Costs of Compromising
We all know about Charles Lindbergh and his famous solo, nonstop flight from New York City to Paris in his single-engine plane, “Spirit of St. Louis.” A great deal of thought and planning went into the flight, of course, and Winston Groom’s The Aviators: Eddie...
Intensity vs Consistency
I am coaching a young executive who is relatively new to leadership. As with many new executives (and some seasoned ones, for that matter), he is struggling with several things—time management, dealing with multiple projects at the same time, prioritization, team...
‘Mom, the Fuller Brush Man is Here!’
Today I’d like to revisit a blog I wrote years ago during my sales-coaching days. It includes two positive stories. Both are about success and perseverance, and one of them is close to home for me. A past issue of Selling Power magazine featured Alfred Fuller, the...
The Fundamentals
In sports, when a coach has a losing season, everyone asks what they are going to do to get the team back to winning. Their answer almost always involves renewed focus on the fundamentals. They talk about focusing on conditioning, getting stronger, proper technique...
Decisions, Decisions, Decisions
In our last blog, we talked about the power and importance of establishing positive routines in our daily lives. Today, we are going to talk more about why it’s so crucial to establish these routines, and it might be something that you haven’t thought about. The thing...
