Focal Point Avaliações 

My experience working with Marc has been extremely rewarding. I have seen meaningful growth in both my professional and personal life, particularly in understanding different personality styles through DISC and improving my communication skills.

Thank you, Marc C., for your guidance, support, and coaching throughout this journey.

I appreciated the hands on approach. I felt heard and understood. The assignments were appropriate and helped me further shape my vision, mission, and messaging. The conversations and activities made me think but I never felt alone, rather I felt like I had an experienced partner - a think partner. I learned a lot about myself and the direction I want to move forward in. Ms. Canton was awesome, she followed up with me, and the resources were and readings were invaluable. The marketing plan that Ms. Canton helped me with was awesome and I couldn't have done it with out her experience and her wealth of knowledge. All my sessions were professional and organized - we worked from start to finish.

Allan has been a mentor to me and my business partner for many years. When he joined Focal Point, we decided to enter into a coaching contract. The regular contact, encouragement, and business knowledge has been SO HELPFUL to us. We thought it would be temporary, but we just can't give it up so we keep renewing.
Focal point has a lot of tools that refocus us when we need it. Sometimes we are free style where we get help on specific issues. Sometimes Allan uses the tools to bring us to the next point in our coaching relationship, and decide what we will work on next.
This is an invaluable service for my small business.

Having a weekly meeting with Allan really centers our thoughts. It gets us on the same page and provides us with something specific to work on for the week that betters the business - working on the business, not in the business. I can hear his phrases as I work now. If one of us is not able to attend, the notes provided help see how the meeting went and where we are focused on. We absolutely love working with Allan!

Allan is a great coach! Very knowledgeable, understanding, and always able to offer grounded advice and strategies. Our business has benefited greatly from his work!

Our company has benefited greatly from working with Focal Point over the last year. From helping us stay focused on moving forward to seeing different perspectives in difficult situations it has guided us to a better stronger company. We are growing, becoming more profitable, and have more confidence as a company and business owners. His commitment to the community and the businesses he works with shows up in how he operates and encourages all of us.

Focal Point has a clear framework for helping me to evaluate my company, create a plan, and execute it. It offers a good mix between personal development and sound industry standard business operating principles.

Focal Point has helped me to mature as a business owner and develop a growth mindset through discussion, analysis, and exercise modules. Todd Eppert holds me accountable for the goals I set and he challenges me to unpack and thoughtfully assess setbacks. I am a better, smarter business leader because of his coaching and I highly recommend Focal Point.

Patrick listened and understood my situation and goals. Provide clear communications and action plan!!!

Marc is very experienced and is a great listener. Therefore, he is quickly able to determine which resource will nearly perfectly address the issue at hand, while making one feel at ease. Every session I have had with Marc has been productive and has exceeded my expectations.

Working with Marc Cote has been a transformative experience for my leadership and professional growth. He has a knack for quickly understanding complex organizational dynamics—and translating those insights into practical, actionable guidance—which really sets him apart. He creates an environment that helps to hold me accountable in a constructive way.
Through our work together, I strengthened my executive presence, improved my decision making under pressure, and became far more intentional in how I lead my team.
I highly recommend Marc to any senior leader looking to deepen their self awareness, elevate their leadership capability, and navigate complexity with greater confidence.

Marc is my trusted business partner and executive coach. He has given me valuable career insights and helped build my leadership skills, as well as refining critical “soft skills” through my career transition as a Director of Finance to Vice President. Through my years working with Marc, he’s helped me unlock and realize my potential in the pursuit of my career aspirations. Marc provides a harmonious perspective on team dynamics and working relationships and has given me the toolkit necessary in developing my team to their fullest potential, as well as working effectively in a cross-functional environment.

I have worked with Marc Cote for several years and his training, guidance, and most importantly support has been vital in my continued development as a leader and executive. Our work together has been all encompassing such as allowing me to bounce ideas and scenarios off him, learning about my individual leadership style and ability, as well as short-term and long-term goal setting. I look forward to our continued work together with him serving as my coach and trusted advisor!

Working with Dave has been a game changer for my professional growth. His ability to combine strategic insight with deep emotional intelligence helped me gain clarity, confidence, and direction as a leader. Through practical tools, honest feedback, and thoughtful guidance, I have improved my decision-making, communication and ability to lead with purpose. The impact has been amazing, not only in my personal development, but in how I show up for my team every day. I highly recommend Dave as a coach to anyone in management who wants to challenge themselves and grow as a leader.

I absolutely LOVE working with Focal Point and their coaches. This team is top notch, highly professional and know how to get the best out of everyone. Their training systems are thorough and comprehensive, their coaches offer diversity and talent across many industries and Focal Point's coaching system WORKS. They are helping people and businesses every day become more efficient and more successful.
10/10 would recommend to anyone!

Such an amazing organization. This starts with the leadership, the development team, all the support provided, and the amazing work their owners do.

Working with Marc this past year has been so impactful for me, shaping how I approach my career goals and my relationships with colleagues and business partners. Marc's guidance has also had a positive impact on my personal relationships and on achieving my goals in my private life. My self-awareness continues to grow, and my emotional IQ improves through the exercises we do. I enjoy working with Marc, and I am so grateful for his guidance and for sharing his knowledge with me.

I've worked with Marc at FocalPoint over the past year, and it's been an excellent experience. Marc has helped me to become a better leader and executive, and it has truly made a positive difference in my approach to work and relationships. I like that Marc uses a variety of tools or approaches based on individual focus areas. Highly recommended!

Investing in myself through coaching with Mike has been such an impactful decision for my own personal and professional growth. I've taken tools that I've gained through coaching and am becoming a much more effective leader. I feel more equipped to handle problems, support my team, and manage my own time.

Working with Marc over this past year has helped me to be a more effective leader and have many tools to address each situation I face. It has really transformed the way I approach my work and I am grateful for the working relationship we have formed. I look forward to continuing my growth with the Focal Point program in 2026.
