Learn how to clarify your purpose to better inspire and lead your people
When you’re able to communicate a clear compelling mission very effectively, it attracts the right people, retains them and motivates them to achieve more.
I get it, despite being passionate about your business and where you’re heading, you’re probably not sharing enough of that passion with your staff, and not sharing enough of yourself in the process which is a shame, as it’s having an unintended impact and costing you opportunities, time, energy and money.
Owning your impact and standing for something more than just a product is a powerful way to enfuse a sense of purpose across the organisation to create effortless loyalty inside and out.
Problem is, most leaders struggle to communicate clearly, are afraid to be themselves and are confused as to what it takes to engage their people around why their company matters.
So if you’ve been asking yourself:
How can I become someone whose ideas and brand people buy into, get excited by and connect with?
How can I show up and be more authentic and engaging when I speak
How can I translate my passion and vision for my company to the rest of the team so they can run with it and feel empowered to grow the company with me?
How can I get my people within the company so wildly proud and excited to be working here that everyone becomes an ambassador of our brand and message?
The answer is simple, you need to be come a Purpose-Driven Leader™.
The good news is, I’m here t help with that.
Over the last decade I’ve coached hundreds of founders and CEOs to help them own their story, raise their profile and have a bigger impact.

LEADERS SET THE WEATHER OF THE ORGANISATION
Your people deserve to have the best version of you.
You were born to have an impact.
Chris Schulze-Melander, Managing Director of Ecover and method
“I benefited immensely from working with Mark who helped me develop new facets to my leadership, and lead a people and purpose driven organisation from the heart.”
As the Managing Director of Ecover and method, Chris had a big mission to achieve: to prove that businesses can be a force for good. But Chris knew in order to achieve that he had to learn how to enrol and inspire his team and customers into a new bold vision. That’s when he hired and partnered up with Mark to help him craft a roadmap to enrich and embed “People Against Dirty’s” culture throughout their organisation. Helping truly make PADs culture a genuine competitive advantage. “Mark was an exceptional thought-partner, coach and mentor who helped me develop the vision and compelling narrative behind our three years strategy, succeeding in getting the organisation fired-up and excited by the next stage in our transformation.”
RABIA KHAN, FOUNDER OF AMBASSADOR OF HAPPINESS
“Crossing paths with Mark propelled my personal and professional life to new heights. His impact is immeasurable.”
With over two decades of results-based practice and training in Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Rabia knew she had a gift to share with the world, but wasn’t sure where to start. That’s when Rabia saw one of Mark Leruste’s talks online and reached out for help. The work they did together opened up new doors for Rabia that she would have never imagined. In her own words, “Mark’s skill to distil my very identity, my dreams, my message and to bridge who I am with what the world needs, has been the most valuable gift I received in 2020.” Moral of the story? No impact is an island.
Andreas Afeldt, Founder and CEO of The Coin Cabinet
“Working with Mark has been massively beneficial!”
When you’re trying to disrupt an entire industry that’s been around for centuries, it takes more than just guts and determination to reach your goals; you need a bold vision and the ability to share it clearly. After a quick search on LinkedIn, Adreas reached out to Mark to level up his leadership communication skills and improve his ability to inspire, engage and empower his team and wider community with his story and vision. “Since working with Mark I’ve really felt much more true to myself, showing up as who I am, and I’ve been amazed at what’s come back to me from doing so.”
Donna O’Toole, Founder and CEO of August
“Mark has helped me tell my story in a way that is already having a huge impact on me, my business, and I’m proud to say, on the new charity partnership that my journey has inspired.”
As the CEO of August, Donna is in the business of helping people who deserve to be recognised, win awards. But she also knew that deep down she had an important story she had to tell to the world to inspire and empower young girls. Problem was, like most founders and entrepreneurs, she was crippled with fear at the very idea of telling her story publicly. As a result of working with Mark, Donna unpacked her story, felt a new sense of possibility and started a new charity partnership close to her heart. If you’re wondering if working with Mark is the right for you, Donna says that “no matter what your journey has been to get here, this is the perfect course to unlock the power of your story and use it to drive you forward to a very positive future.”
ASH ALEXANDER-COOPER OBE, Leadership & Resilience Expert
“Thanks to Mark I gained clarity and confidence to own my story and learnt some invaluable skills to share it with the world.”
For years Ash had been thinking about writing a book and telling his story, but didn't know where to start. As a former Team GB athlete, wounded veteran, mental health campaigner and former Specialist Military Unit Colonel in the British Armed Forces who served for 22 years and spent 82 months deployed on operations in complex and hostile environments, Ash had a thing or two to share about resilience and leadership. “The fact my book manuscript is now in first edit, is thanks to Mark for showing me the way.”
Billie Quinlan, Co-Founder AND CEO of Ferly
“Mark has given me the tools and the confidence to tackle any challenge head on.”
Billie entered Mark’s programme on day one as “a very fragile, scared and confused young woman” but two years later she started her own business and co-founded Ferly - an App to build a safe space for women to learn about their sexuality and pleasure - delivered a powerful TEDX talk and raised £1.5 million from VC’s. Yet as she put it, “the biggest transition has been from within”.
MIKE ReID, CO-Founder OF DENT GLOBAL
“Mark enabled me to truly see that my message matters and that my story has value.”
Despite knowing how important raising your profile was to build a successful and sustainable business Mike had some resistance to embracing social media and sharing parts of himself in a more open way with his audience. After unpacking his story and finding a new way for him to reconnect with his creative spark, Mike started sharing up more authentically on social media. “Mark has an amazing ability to help you find the elements of your story that should be amplified in order for you to get the attention to the work, your mission and ultimately the results that you produce for your clients.”
Elaine Carnegie, Founder AND MD of Beingworks
”I no longer have that annoying little voice that had been holding me back from doing so many things.”
Elaine was crippled with 20 years of self-down and low self belief and yet had a story she wanted to share with the world. But she didn’t think anyone would care. After working with Mark, Elaine unpacked her story and realised how valuable her story was and how much it could help others. “From the onset, Mark took me on this incredible journey of transformation and self-discovery and made me believe in my story and in myself.” Since then Elaine has been featured in Huffington Post, Marie Claire and her posts on LinkedIn have been viewed more than 300,000 times.
“I benefited immensely from working with Mark who helped me develop new facets to my leadership, and lead a people and purpose driven organisation from the heart.”
