Biography

Mark has helped Audi break the “Rule of Three” in luxury cars to become a real player in the industry. He’s taken Sony PlayStation from #3 to #1 in the console wars, made Charles Schwab the leading investing brand, helped redefine the mission of Clif Bar & Co, and developed a growth plan for payments insurgent Xoom.

If you want a smart, fun, intense, collaborative, and ultimately transformative experience for your brand and business, you should work with Mark. He will bring all 18 years of his direct experience with challengers — the good and the bad — to bear on your business.

In addition to consulting, facilitation, and coaching, Mark is a popular public speaker, and frequent lecturer at Hult International Business School and Presidio Business School.
