Elan Marko is the founder of Deep Work Sprints, a virtual coworking world that helps entrepreneurs build a 2hr work day, so they can land more clients and get more work done … all from home!
He started his first business when he was 10 years of age and moved on to formal education at the Richard Ivey School of Business.
I first met Elan when I was invited to join his session to discuss how coaches, speakers, and leaders could better facilitate groups online. With COVID-19 shut-downs becoming the reality for many of us, successfully moving our workshops, meetings, and connections to virtual platforms was so important.
Elan’s facilitation of that meeting was a great example of how he works to provide fun and engaging experiences – even online. By the end of the discussion, we all felt a close connection with him, and each other!
Based in Toronto, Elan not only runs Deep Work Sprints, but is on a mission to help entrepreneurs positively impact the world and accomplish their goals faster. His ability to balance having fun and getting things done is contagious!
Facts I find fun about Elan are the fact that he has rock-climbed over 400,000 vertical feet, across over 300 cliffs around the world, he created the Flash Mob High-5 Run – randomly high-fiving strangers as you’re running (yes, pre-COVID!), and once asked Heather Reisman, Indigo’s CEO & Chief Booklover – aka. “Heather’s Picks” - what she’d do with 500 extra hours.
Even though Elan is getting ready to start an exciting new chapter as a new father, he’s not slowing down and plans to travel and work with the family in their converted sprinter van they built from scratch.
