Frequently Asked Questions
As you may have never heard of MARSTA Goals®, you might want to know a little more....
What is a MARSTA Goal® and why is it so powerful in the hands of coaches?
MARSTA Goals® is a human-centred, strengths-based, and highly adaptable framework that helps coaches, facilitators, and leaders structure powerful conversations, drive goal achievement, and navigate complexity.Unlike traditional goal-setting methods (e.g., SMART goals), MARSTA goes deeper - it unpacks the real factors that influence success, including obstacles, strengths, and strategic actions.
Who is this accreditation for?
This accreditation is for coaches, consultants, facilitators, and leaders who want a structured yet flexible framework to guide individuals and leaders through high-impact coaching and goal-setting. If you work with individuals, leaders, or professionals and want to:
- Deliver deeper, more structured coaching sessions
- Integrate MARSTA® with other coaching models or leadership tools
- Help clients navigate complexity and achieve real results…
...then the Goal MARSTA® Accreditation is for you!
How is MARSTA Goals® different from other coaching or goal-setting frameworks?
Most goal-setting frameworks (like SMART goals) are out-dated and generally only focus on the outcome - they tell you what you want to achieve but don’t help you understand why you might struggle to get there.
MARSTA Goals® is different because it:
- Explores the complexity behind success - helping clients identify barriers and enablers rather than just setting a goal.
- Provides a structured yet adaptable framework - it’s a master (MARSTA®) framework that integrates with any coaching approach you already use.
- Works with strengths - rather than ignoring personal strengths, MARSTA® helps clients apply their unique strengths to achieve results.
It’s a goal-setting framework that actually works in the real world.
How have other coaches and leaders used MARSTA Goals® successfully?
One powerful example is from an experienced coach working with an interim CEO in an acting role who needed to prove herself within three months to secure a permanent position. Using MARSTA Goals®, she:
- Identified a high-impact business goal that demonstrated her leadership skills.
- Addressed the real concerns of the board so she could position herself effectively.
- Created a clear, strategic action plan that aligned with organisational priorities.
In just 45 minutes, she had a powerful, focused goal that was realistic, strategic, and aligned with her personal and professional growth.
Can I use MARSTA® alongside other coaching tools and methods?
Absolutely! MARSTA is not a replacement for your existing coaching tools - it’s a master framework that gives you a structured way to apply them.
If you already use these or other methodologies:
- Strengths-based coaching
- NLP techniques
- The GROW model
- Agile or leadership development tools
The MARSTA® framework helps you integrate and apply these approaches more effectively.
