Mastermind Groups

“Herein lies the tragedy of the age: not that men are poor—all men know something of poverty; not that men are wicked—who is good? Not that men are ignorant—what is Truth? Nay, but that men know so little of men. Our growth comes from the wisdom we gain in fellowship with one another.“

– W.E.B. Du Bois

What Leaders Say

“The OLC coach empowered me with tools and resources that I still use today and I share with others that I lead. He centered me as a client and shared resources that were designed with me in mind. Additionally, he took the time to get to know me and my values. He demonstrated this when providing feedback, especially if my actions did not align with my values.”

Dirron Allen, Associate Vice President, Student Affairs

“My sessions with Marvin were far more insightful, impactful and meaningful than I ever imagined it to be. I gained a perspective into myself that was more than just helpful in my career but as a husband, father and as a man. My only regret was in not availing myself of Marvin's services sooner than I did.”

Theodore Chung, Executive Fellow
