The Marks-Osborne Group helps businesses and institutions go beyond diversity, leveraging our model, which breeds equitable advancement and maximum productivity. Learn how to navigate conflict-inducing situations in a healthy, professional manner.

Our service offerings are for individuals, groups, non-profits, educational institutions, religious institutions, and corporations.

According to Merriam-Webster Dictionary, a DISRUPTION is "a break or interruption in the normal course or continuation of some activity, process, etc." Within this unique coaching method, we work together to combat systemic negative behaviors that adversely impact individuals and corporations. These problematic - and, often, unprohibited behaviors often lead to:

• Racism
• Misogyny
• Religiophobia
• Ageism
• Ableism

Our method is innovative and introspective, leveraging one's idea of justice as its springboard. The DISRUPTION Method is the key to resetting and realigning, becoming an active participant in creating an inclusive and equitable culture.

The DISRUPTION Method can be crafted to meet individual, leadership, and organizational needs. Customized solutions are available.
