Marc Steinberg, MCC
Founder, MCC and Master Trainer of the Consciousness Coaching® Academy, Marc Steinberg has been empowering and inspiring people on their way to personal growth, spiritual fulfillment and success for more than two decades.
Born in Munich, Germany, in 1959, he spent his youth searching for enlightenment. Having made his “Outer Million” easily at an early age, Marc soon realized that he was missing its intangible counterpart, which he called “The Inner Million”. He duly set off in search of it, initially by spending time in an Indian monastery. From there, the quest for enlightenment took him through many countries and years of in-depth engagement with disciplines including psychotherapy, ontology, yoga, Sanskrit and Indian philosophy, hermeneutics, Zen meditation, acting, firewalking as well as transformational coaching and training.
Having found what he was looking for, Marc returned into the world and since then has been a successful entrepreneur and thought leader. Marc started coaching in the USA in the 1980s and returned to his native Germany in 1990. There he began to develop his unique and truly powerful brand of coaching called Consciousness Coaching®. Marc’s mission statement since 1991 has been: “Making love a worldwide reality by initiating revolutions in consciousness” – and this notion seems to have passed its critical mass and to be reaching a level of global awareness.
Marc’s applied philosophy is based on the Benedictine credo that all external changes begin internally in the human being. In addition, Marc says that, “Great coaching is lean and elegant; it’s meaning is measured by the client’s results and nothing else.” Basing on these values, the core principles of Consciousness Coaching® include quality, innovation, effectiveness, and walking the talk.
After ten years in Germany, Marc took Consciousness Coaching® to Spain where he continued his success. In 2002 he established CCI (Creative Consciousness® International) in Cape Town, South Africa, with the aim of enabling people around the world to create authentic and sustainable levels of consciousness, competence and holistic success for themselves.
Marc’s applied philosophy is based on the Benedictine credo that all external changes begin internally in the human being, and his mission statement since 1991 has been: “Contributing to a global revolution in consciousness through facilitating awareness- and consciousness development programs combined with 1st class coach training powered by the internationally accredited Consciousness Coaching® methodology”.
