HeadStrong Performance

Marcel Daane, Neuroscience of Leadership

Recipient of the 2012 Global HR Excellence Award in Leadership as well as the 2016 Global Coaching Leadership Award, Marcel Daane is considered a thought leader who believes we need to constantly challenge the paradigm of normal business practice by daring to explore the unknown without the loss of enthusiasm.

Mind-Body Leadership & Executive Coach

Marcel is considered one of the world’s authorities in measuring and raising mental capacity by synchronizing the body and mind and using that awareness to motivate a shift in mindset and behavior as it relates to teamwork, change, communication, and leadership. He is the author of his critically acclaimed book and accompanying App called: “Headstrong Performance” and is the inventor of the world’s first online Team-Brain Age Assessment.

Raised in Political Exile, Marcel is the son of a celebrated Political Activist who taught him early on that life has greater meaning when we are of service to others rather than merely to ourselves. This value shines through in everything Marcel has done in his 30-year professional evolution ranging from serving in the military to developing elite athletes, coaching chronically ill patients, conducting ground-breaking neuro-leadership research, and in his executive coaching.

Marcel holds a postgraduate degree in the Neurosci­ence of Leadership from Middlesex University, an Undergraduate Degree in Complementary Medicine from Charles Sturt University coupled with advanced certifications in fitness, sports performance, and executive coaching.
