Mark’s years of experience in not-for-profit organizations include staff positions as a membership director, local chapter director and staff officer of three organizations. In addition, he’s an active volunteer in several local, state, national and international societies.
Mark’s reputation isn’t just based on experience…it’s based on his talent, too. He’s served for over 15 years on the faculty of the Institutes for organization management, a continuing education program sponsored by the U.S. Chamber of Commerce. Tens of thousands of volunteer and staff leaders have attended his programs worldwide, and they all can attest to his ability to present his topics in a unique, humorous and interactive style.
Since starting his own company in 1986, Mark has learned the challenges and rewards of owning a business. He combines his talent and experience to help organizations in the areas of membership development, volunteer and staff training, strategic and long-range planning and marketing products and services.
An award winning author, Mark’s first book, Membership Development: 101Ways to Get and Keep Your Members, has been a hit on five continents.
His newest book, The Gift of Leadership, has won universal acclaim for its ability to train and inspire volunteer leaders in virtually every type of organization.
A graduate of the University of Maryland, Mark’s clients range from the American Medical association to the Australian Society of Association Executives. Perhaps most importantly, Mark is not a "former" anything.
His presentations are based not only on his previous experiences, but also on his day-to-day role as Executive Vice President of the Chain Link Fence manufacturers Institute, an international trade association.
