Marcus came to Hope in 2013. He teaches courses in principles of management, human resource management, non-profit consulting, and marketing management, as well as a management senior seminar designed to help equip students to transition to being successful, balanced and accountable professionals. In his role, Marcus also consults with organizations to address brand and market development.

Marcus鈥� primary area of research is the relationship between people and their work in the context of occupational health psychology and, specifically, stress at work. His goal is to act as an advocate for both the individual and the organization in designing work that promotes subsidiarity in the form of job control, and accountability in terms of job design and performance.

These interests were initially formed prior to his academic role, during almost a decade of work in executive recruitment and other business development positions in both the U.S. and U.K. Specifically, in a media promotions position in London, Marcus would interview company CEOs about their road to building a business from scratch or guiding an existing organization through transition. Latterly, he learned about the insidious role of excessive workplace stress through being a headhunter for Big 4 and Group A accountancy practice partners, as well as IT and engineering professionals: 鈥淏eyond learning about functional and strategic aspects of these industry sectors, I was amazed by how powerful a negative role high or ongoing job stress could play on even very accomplished people 鈥� I want to do something about it that is mutually beneficial.鈥� In addition to his research work at Hope, Marcus speaks and consults to organizations on how to reduce excessive and unnecessary work stress and unwanted turnover.

Marcus also runs the Leadership Minor at Hope. He brands this as 鈥淭he Minor for 础濒濒鈥� because of the need for strong and ethical leaders in every walk of life.

In 2022 he was both the Hope Outstanding Professor Educator (H.O.P.E.) Award winner and the , where he talked about focusing on long-term goals.
