He is often asked about how do you go from being a leader across Europe for Contiki Holidays to a respected, sought after motivational keynote speaker? Mark’s decade of experience in Europe armed him with a wealth of knowledge around people, human behaviour, the psychology of decision-making and what makes people tick both personally and professionally.

So, from connecting with happy go lucky passengers in Europe, Mark now connects with people globally on a deeper, more meaningful level in their own lives. Upgrading from a charming tour guide to a wise sage and masterful storyteller, it’s no wonder he’s a sought after international keynote speaker, trainer and MC!
