Founded by passionate Coach Mark Farrer-Brown, Fit to Lead specializes in igniting the spark inside entrepreneurs so they can solve the significant problems in the world and create meaningful jobs for everyone to flourish. Mark’s mission as a Founders’ Coach is to help one million entrepreneurs fulfil their own and their company’s potential.

Through Fit to Lead, Mark supports high-growth founders with a unique combination of coaching and mentoring by focusing on three key areas; the self, the team, and the company.

Working on the self is focused on strengthening the founder’s leadership skills and bolstering their performance sustainably as their business transitions from start-up to scale-up. Mark believes that better energy management + better well-being = better productivity.

Working on the team is about igniting the team’s  high-performance, creating more productivity, stronger collaboration and better decision making. And thirdly, working on the company focuses on strategy, culture, communication, board management, fund-raising, business growth, longevity, and the exit.

By targeting the  coaching on these three key areas, Fit to Lead empowers founders to grow and learn ahead of the growth curve of their companies. This allows them to transition successfully into thriving leaders. Mark’s approach is based on decades of experience in the scale up arena and on the observation of the founder’s journey from many different perspectives – as a founder, advisor and venture capitalist. As there is no one playbook for founder success, Fit to Lead supports founders to do their best thinking to determine their own unique paths to success.

Make sure to go and follow all these amazing leading coaches to continue to watch as they make their mark on the world.
