Each and every one of us are building an impactful history, or legacy, on a daily basis. Every decision we make, each conversation we take part in, the actions we repeat, and the values we hold to all contribute to the individual culture, or relational environment, we create for ourselves and those who walk the path with us. What lasting impact or mark on the world do I want to leave? If not by our design, the answer will lie in what we practice day in and day out, more specifically how others feel around us. Impactful, life-giving leaders who leave a legacy that lives on after them treasure those around them through mutual honor and respect. They live as a leader motivated by humble honor, willing to serve so that others can discover their own worth and make their unique contribution in their sphere of influence. Whatever our organizational description we are a part of, it serves in many ways as simply the backdrop for building cultural legacy that endures, calling those after us to a higher road. What marks your legacy?

"I have known Mark for almost 2 decades. We have partnered in many areas of life together. Mark has served as an Advisor and on the Board of Directors for my International Non-Profit organization for over 12 years. His words of wisdom, counsel and strategic planning have allowed us as an organization to grow steadily and solidly. We now feed orphans in S. Africa, rescue children and women in Brazil, feed the hungry in Israel, and share a message of hope here in the USA and internationally.I recommend Mark as a consultant, coach and facilitator with the highest of accolades. I have worked with many people over the years in government, high-end retail, accounting, and now as the founder of an international organization; Mark is a rare-gem of wisdom, counsel, and reliability.
