Who Is Marques Ogden?

A Story That Moves Rooms

Marques Ogden played in the NFL for seven seasons before transitioning into entrepreneurship — where he built a construction company to $15M in revenue, then lost it all in a catastrophic business failure.

Rather than walk away, Marques rebuilt from nothing — becoming a sought-after keynote speaker, executive coach, and the creator of the Bison OS. His story is not about overnight success. It's about the grit, the system, and the mindset it takes to come back stronger.

Today Marques speaks to corporations, sales teams, athletic programs, and leadership groups worldwide — delivering talks that are equal parts entertainment, education, and genuine transformation.

He is the recipient of the 2024 International Association of Top Professionals (IAOTP) award for Top Inspirational Athlete and Keynote Speaker of the Year.

Whether it's a 45-minute keynote, a half-day workshop, or a multi-day corporate training, Marques tailors every engagement to the audience, the industry, and the outcome you need.
