Jordi Montalbo Todolí 

Independant Consultant | Jordi was Marcia Deyanira’s client 

Updated: July 2024. Two years ago, I made the decision to retire. As part of my preparation and transition into retirement, I utilized Marcia’s coaching services. This period of change was navigated with grace and foresight, thanks in part to our collaborative efforts. Now, two years post-retirement, our professional relationship continues. The journey of self-improvement and personal growth does not end with a career, and it has been my privilege to accompany Marcia on this ongoing journey, as well as act as Dotpreneur’s mentor. Our work together remains as fulfilling and productive as ever, demonstrating that the pursuit of personal development is a lifelong endeavor. 

"April 20, 2018. As the Insurance Sector Lead Partner for Deloitte Spain over Europe, the Middle East and Africa, I have had the pleasure of collaborating with Marcia as a Career Services Provider for the past seven years. We have shared commercial proposals and presentations, and discussed all matters of business, from the technical to the ethical. Regardless of the area — and with the utmost professionalism, commitment and elegance — Marcia has always brought a deeply reasoned and thoughtful perspective, a global vision and a unique stance.  

Throughout my personal and professional life, I have worked with many collaborators using reflective processes with an eye toward improving my day-to-day experiences. Marcia is, without doubt, the most comprehensive. Because of her wealth of social, cultural and intellectual skills, she goes above and beyond. She is always willing to help, with the utmost involvement and confidentiality.  

In my estimation, Marcia perfectly fulfils the roles of Coach and Career Services Provider and I strongly recommend her services to any organisation or individual who is looking to improve in the aforementioned areas.

"Marcia, your support throughout [this process] has been invaluable. I feel a sense of peace, knowing that everything is as it should be. 🦋🪷💗 

  

Your guidance has been transformative. You helped me recognize my blind spots and limiting thoughts. Sometimes, we seek advice and guidance, but ultimately, we are the best decision-makers for our own lives—even when it’s difficult and uncomfortable. 

  

A pivotal moment occurred when you questioned my frequent use of the word ‘should’ when I was exploring the best way forward. You gently asked what other word I might replace it with? So, I declared: "I would love to do [Z].’ The instant I said it, I knew it wasn’t true. I felt the lack of truth and that alone was a breakthrough revealing insights into my thought patterns and limiting ideas. 

 

Having someone truly listen—especially a thinking partner who doesn’t impose their ideas—helps clarify our thinking. Your guidance exemplifies this beautifully."

I am very grateful to Marcia for helping me to think clearly about what I really want to do with my professional life. ... Thank you for your support, your insight, your vision and your warmth. You have helped me to grow and get a little closer to what I want to do, and how I want to be. I will continue to look for ways to give my best to the world.” 

Francisco (Curro) García-Valdecasas 

Corporate Director & Advisor / Ex-partner in Deloitte Spain & the UK 

May 29, 2018 | Marcia Deyanira’s client 

 I began working with Marcia in 2007, the year I was promoted to Partner of Deloitte Spain. Since then (to 2018), she has helped my professional career contributing to the development of aspects key for a Partner of a global professional services firm, including: broadening and deepening relevant knowledge of the industry, of digitisation, of innovation and of international vision. 
 
In my experience, Marcia works efficiently through reflection, raising issues that favour understanding and critical analysis. In this respect, I would like to especially highlight her ability to listen, understand and empathise with people, which encourages more constructive contributions from them. 
 
In my years as Partner in Deloitte, Marcia contributed to the development of several dimensions of my person which helped me to successfully achieve three very important professional milestones: my role as the partner responsible for the audit of one of the Firm's principal clients; my preparation for secondment and expatriation to London, UK.; and, finally, my change of professional direction.  
 
In closing, and without reservation, I fully recommend Marcia Berlanga Robinson. She is a person that I value a lot and with whom I trust my personal and professional growth; the proof of which is that I am currently working with her again. Having transitioned out of Deloitte, Marcia is now helping me in my new professional project, specifically in the defining of objectives, the design of the road map to achieve those objectives, and in the construction and development of my personal brand.”

{Translated from the original Spanish} 

Marcia is an excellent professional who has known how to guide me and help me set guidelines that we identified together for my evolution from the first moment. A fundamental piece in my journey. A great person, communicator, committed and passionate about her work. All of this is received in a methodical, objective, and motivating combination always aimed at support and achievement of results. 

I have the great certainty that, even though one is the protagonist of one’s own evolution, the path is much better with Emme, as a person and professional. For me, an essential companion to discover, guide, and evolve. 

Grateful. Laura. 

Fernando Foncea 

Partner | Risk Advisory - Risk Management Deloitte

April 17, 2018 | Fernando was Marcia client 

"As a consulting partner of Deloitte for more than eight years, I face various situations that require effective communication and problem-solving skills. To manage that, I have counted on Marcia’s coaching on a regular basis for more than five years now, since the start of her company, Executive Edge (now, Dotpreneur). 

As a “Coachsultant”, Marcia immediately captured a correct sense of my needs and structured our weekly sessions toward continuous improvement in skills and matters specific to my sector. She investigates a broad range of topics, from talent attraction and retention to the impacts of mega-trends like blockchain and artificial intelligence. She also successfully leads individual sessions to rehearse proposals for prospects, presentations for clients and sector-related speeches to larger audiences, as needed. 

Marcia has a high level of empathy and professionalism which greatly facilitates communication and discussion, making sessions enjoyable and interesting. I would also highlight her integrity and enthusiasm, and her commitment to developing skills, both technical and social. 

I am convinced that anyone who can work with Marcia will also have an excellent and enriching experience. 

 

Sandro de Castro - "Helping organisations become better versions of themselves."

Director at Aeon Consulting

I worked with Marcia for three years, 2007 - 2010. Acting as my Career Coach, I can only describe her input as invaluable. Her rigour, insight and diligence helped me navigate through a number of challenges and key moments of my professional career and achieve great results.  
 
Professional results are not all, though: her optimism and qualities as a human being provide an underlying emotional cushion that helps integrate practical decisions into one's own beliefs and values, producing lasting results.  
 
I would certainly recommend Marcia to anyone looking for support in reaching their next level, professionally or personally.

Hospital Manager | USA

I am very pleased to draft this letter of recommendation for Marcia. I met her a little over two years ago in a course in which we both participated as attendees: "Living on the Edge of Evolution", organized by the Foundation for a Global Community. We were to analyze, from a broad perspective, the impact of human action on the ecosystem. After a while, we collaborated by designing the program for the following season (now successfully concluded), aimed at providing participants with tools to identify and implement their own strategies to improve the health of the planet.

In the first-year course, Marcia amazed me with her interventions in class, which I found to be well structured, original and insightful. She showed an obvious interest in the issues we were dealing with, deeply reflecting on each.

When I planned the following class season with her, I discovered Marcia to be brilliant, creative and organized. As a trainer, she showed intuition when proposing theoretical and practical activities. She always worked well in a team, with enthusiasm and integrity, a sense of humor and joy. I admire, on the other hand, how she has educated her children, teaching them the value of authenticity and to enjoy life.

My experience as an area manager in a hospital has allowed me to hire and supervise many employees. As a professional and friend, I can assure you that Marcia is up to the task in any project she chooses to participate in. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me.

Kind regards
Philip Notermann
