In this episode of Career Coaching Secrets, host Rexhen Doda sits down with Adam Hartung, CEO and Managing Partner of Spark Partners, for a deep look into how real growth happens in careers, businesses, and leadership. Adam reveals why the key to long-term success isn’t grinding harder—but changing the way you approach challenges, experimenting with new strategies, and surrounding yourself with people who support your evolution.

Adam shares how he built his coaching business by maximizing meaningful interactions rather than chasing conversions, and why small and mid-sized businesses are where real transformation happens. He also breaks down his flat-rate coaching model, the challenges of building a true referral engine, and the mindset shifts leaders must embrace to break old habits and step into higher performance.

Rich with insights on experimentation, scenario planning, innovation, and personal reinvention, this conversation is a must-listen for leaders, aspiring leaders, and coaches who want to elevate their impact in a rapidly changing world.
