Tune in this Thursday, June 13, 2024, at 11 am PST, 1 pm CST, and 2 pm EST on the VoiceAmerica Business Network Channel! Marques Ogden, a former NFL player turned inspirational keynote speaker, will share his incredible story of resilience and determination. As the founder and CEO of Ogden Ventures LLC, a three-time best-selling author (Sleepless Nights; The Success Cycle), a business coach and consultant, and the host of the podcast Authenticity With Marques Ogden, Marques has faced numerous challenges on his path to success. After retiring from football, Marques ventured into the world of construction and contracting. At the age of 27, he founded a construction company that experienced rapid growth. However, he eventually faced a devastating setback when the company went bankrupt, resulting in a loss of almost two million dollars on a single project within just 90 days. Despite hitting rock bottom, Marques didn't give up. He took on a part-time job as a custodian and used this experience as a turning point in his life. Through sheer determination and hard work, Marques fought his way back to the top, using his struggles as fuel for inspiration. Now, he shares his powerful story to help others learn how to embrace failure and achieve success. His journey highlights the importance of focusing on what you want, locking in on your target, and taking action to attain your goals. Marques also recently overcame a personal challenge of divorce and bounced back by applying the strategy of the four V's: Visualization, Vocalization, casting Votes for others (doing something positive), and Venturing out to find his tribe. Ultimately, he achieved victory and is now dedicated to empowering others to do the same. Don't miss this opportunity to hear Marques Ogden's inspiring story of triumph over adversity. Join us on The Leader's Edge this Thursday to learn how to turn setbacks into stepping stones towards success.
