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.

simplicity
If you’ve ever watched one of those restaurant makeover shows on television, you’ll see that they often begin by simplifying the menu. They whittle down those four-, five- or even eight-page menus to showcase the few truly delicious dishes that the restaurant does...
processes
I think most people who work with me would say that I'm organized. I’m actually not wired to be that way, but I've learned over the years to be much more methodical and detail-oriented. You could say it’s been a process, and it remains an ongoing process, too....
the dip
In a previous blog, we gave you our “top 10 must-read (and listen)” list. And then some of you joined in and shared other smart reads. Most recently, we looked at The Go-Giver by Bob Burg and John David Mann. This book challenges us to shift our focus from getting to...
embarrassing moment
We've all had customers who became our friends. This sometimes is the happy happenstance of building authentic relationships based on honesty and trust. You connect with these people, and you are just as glad to run into them at the Pig as you are to have them sitting...

owning up
On my way home from a weekend in New Orleans—where one of the highlights was The National WWII Museum—I stopped to eat at one of my favorite fast-casual restaurants. I love this place because the food is always fresh and flavorful and the service is quick. I ordered...
