“Mark is one of the most gifted and well-rounded individuals with whom I have worked, and has talents spanning the full gamut needed for successful senior leadership, turnarounds, and major technological and organizational shifts. He is a true leader and people follow him. As a technical leader, he is able to quickly ascertain core issues and manage them. Due to his technical expertise, his teams also rally behind him and he can effect change quickly. He also makes accurate decisions that help drive both present and future results. While technical, Mark also possesses strong business acumen, and understands how to make the right decisions in order to drive revenue and EBITDA, frequently putting together pieces that others have missed, or looking through problems with a unique lens that helps the company achieve more than was deemed possible. The combination of his business acumen and technical ability together make Mark a leader able to deliver consistent and outstanding results. His technical abilities and business acumen are important traits in his engagement with the business and other leaders, but his ability to coach, mentor, and engage with employees is the best I have seen in my career. Though Mark pushes hard and achieves results, he also creates an atmosphere that drives learning, fun and high levels of engagement and morale. Mark is truly gifted and is an asset to any organization, and I wholeheartedly recommend him. ”
