THE SURPRISING GIFT OF DOUBT
Use Uncertainty to Become the Exceptional Leader You Are Meant to Be
Are you a high-performing leader haunted by self-doubt?
What if that doubt isn’t a weakness, but your greatest asset? What if it’s actually signaling you’re on the verge of a leadership breakthrough?
Your Doubt is Telling You Something Important
Most leaders experience a moment when they realize they don’t have all the answers. You’ve likely hit milestone after milestone, with people looking to you for direction. Yet inside, you feel like you’re just making it up as you go along.
This doubt isn’t a signal to retreat—it’s an invitation to advance into what Marc calls “Quadrant 3 Leadership,” where you’ll discover:
- How to turn uncertainty into your leadership superpower
- A practical framework to find your authentic leadership voice
- Tools to create leadership systems built specifically for you, not forcing you into someone else’s mold
- A path from feeling “broken” to recognizing the wonderful gift you are to your organization
Beyond Copying Others or Following Gurus
Leadership isn’t about mimicking others or following rigid formulas. It’s about developing your own authentic leadership style based on your unique:
Hardwiring
Discover your natural abilities and strengths instead of fighting against them
Identity
Uncover and reshape the stories that determine how you show up as a leader
Goals
Clarify what truly matters to you and your organization to drive focused action
In The Surprising Gift of Doubt, Marc guides you on this journey, showing you how to create the leadership approach that’s authentically yours.

- A CEO or executive director feeling the pressure of leadership isolation
- A rising leader preparing for your next career step
