DillonMarcus Launches an Emotional Intelligence App for Reducing Workplace Stress & Anxiety

Bringing Dr. Abraham Low’s proven, practical 4-Step Method to the workplace is
increasing emotional intelligence, while decreasing on-the-job stress and anxiety.  

NJ, May 9, 2024, - Spot-It™, the workplace wellness brand under parent company DillonMarcus, a highly regarded consulting firm that offers executive leadership coaching, today announced its first digital product, the Why Not Spot-It™ app for iOS and Android. A first-of-its-kind, non-clinical, self-help solution for workplace professionals is designed to intervene in stress-inducing situations before they become unmanageable. The app guides users to confidentially “spot” stressful situations in the moment, course-correcting reactive thoughts that can lead to symptoms of stress and anxiety. The premium version of the app provides a portal to live Spot-It Circles™ where individuals can Spot situations in a group setting. Available for both individual users and as an enterprise wellness Benefit offering, Spot-It™ and its team of certified coaches are providing relief to workplace stress in real-time.

Tara Marcus and Evan Marcus, co-founders of Spot-It™ and experienced leadership coaches, observed a surge of stress and anxiety among their clients. Watching businesses lose some of their best talent due to stress-related symptoms resulting in trips to the ER, presenteeism and absenteeism in the office, they both knew the workplace needed an intervention. The American Psychological Association 2021 Work & Well-Being Survey results supported DillonMarcus’ findings - stating that nearly three in five employees (59%) had experienced negative impacts of work-related stress, including lack of interest, motivation or energy (26%), difficulty focusing (21%), and a lack of effort at work (19%).   

In 1937, the late, esteemed Dr. Abraham Low recognized his psychiatric patients needed after care that would aid in their reintegration into society, leading to the establishment of a 4-Step cognitive behavioral approach. The Method was quickly adopted as a peer-to-peer practice by patients and practitioners, teaching them how to replace fearful, insecure thoughts with more secure, balanced thoughts. DillonMarcus holds the exclusive license from Recovery International to teach the Method to workplace professionals.  

With the launch of the Why Not Spot-It™ app and companion curriculum, Spot-It™ is delivering immediate and tangible benefits, cultivating an emotionally safe and supportive community for business leaders worldwide. Spot-It's mission empowers individuals to reclaim control over their mindset, enabling them to confront workplace challenges by making peace of mind their primary goal.  Local participating organizations that have been trained on the method include Jefferson Health Plans, EDA Contractors, WAWA and the United States Air Force.  “As a leadership coach working in multiple industries with employees in varying levels of the organization, we saw the increased suffering and knew we could help. Using Dr. Low’s Method as a coaching tool, clients requested an accessible and practical way of practicing the Method,” said Tara Marcus.  

“I know the Spot-It™ Method well because I need it.  As someone who naturally leans more to the anxious side of the stress and anxiety spectrum, I spot situations that trigger me every day. Rather than being paralyzed by anxiety,  using the app allows me to feel liberated, so I can focus on the task at hand.” said Evan Marcus.
