Daniel Marcos

Daniel Marcos is the co-founder and CEO of Growth Institute, the leading online education company for C-level executives at fast-growing firms. He is a keynote speaker and a CEO Coach, with a mission to help 1 million entrepreneurs scale their impact and reduce drama in the process.

He is a member of YPO and EO and is a certified coach in the Scaling Up methodology. He is a graduate of EO’s premiere CEO program, the “Birthing of Giants”. In the year 2000, he built an online trading business that was acquired within six months by what was Argentina's most significant financial player at the time.

As a serial entrepreneur, Daniel quickly realized that CEOs are often the company's bottleneck. In the same way, you can’t solve a problem without first elevating your mindset, a business can’t evolve beyond what the CEO can handle. Daniel partnered with Verne Harnish in 2012 to bring executive training to the masses. What was once reserved for a small niche of wealthy companies is now available to all CEOs and executive teams.

In less than a decade, Growth Institute has been recognized 4 times among the top 5,000 fastest-growing companies in the USA, with over 40,000 members across 68 countries.
