Coaching with Marc Lewis

As Dean of the world’s most awarded advertising school, he has coached thousands of individuals—from raw talent to global ECDs—helping them unlock their potential, sharpen their thinking, and build lives and careers that matter.

Now, a limited number of professionals can access that same level of clarity, provocation, and transformation through one-to-one coaching.

Marc is a true visionary, always ahead of the times and always approaching any challenge or opportunity from the widest perspective. Marc pushes you and most importantly the depth and ambition of your thinking.

Work with One of the Most Influential Creative Coaches of Our Generation

Who It’s For

This coaching is designed for:

  • Marketing Directors who want to think more creatively and lead with vision
  • Entrepreneurs looking to sharpen their story, strategy, or edge
  • Freelancers seeking clarity, momentum, or a stronger value proposition
  • Senior professionals in transition, questioning what’s next or what’s missing

It’s not therapy. It’s not training.

It’s high-impact coaching that helps smart people see themselves—and their work—more clearly.

What to Expect

Marc’s coaching blends strategic thinking with creative insight, offering:

  • A mirror to your ambitions—and the blocks in your way
  • Powerful questions that unlock new perspectives
  • Creative frameworks that build clarity, courage, and action
  • A safe but stretching space to reflect, decide, and move forward

Every session is bespoke, but grounded in decades of experience coaching creative minds to success.

Words from our students

Don't just take our word. Read statements directly from students that have been a part of SCA and thrived on their journeys.

Bootcamp is an awesome deep-dive into the world of creativity. From learning how to proactively find problems to solve, to better evaluating my ideas, I learned so much that I'll apply along my career path. I'd highly recommend SCA Bootcamp to any budding creatives looking to push themselves further

After years of seeing copy-and-paste briefs from clients, I now have the tools and frameworks to uncover the problem and shine a new light on it. This course is invaluable to anyone who wants to be excited and inspired by briefs again.

The art of writing a brief involves both left and right side of the brain. As a course this helped explore the creative and functional aspects of a well rounded, inspiring and on target brief. I'd highly recommend as a must for any strategist (or marketing professional!)

Coaching with Marc

SCA 2.0 was the starting point of my entrepreneurial journey and gave me the foundation to build and eventually sell my business. Marc, the mentors, and my classmates inspired a full-stack mindset—creative, strategic, and hands-on. Ten years later, I still use the skills I learned every single day.
