SUCCESS STORIES

"Rare Caliber and Character" Rarely in this life do you have the opportunity to work with someone of the caliber and character of Mark Womack. I have had the distinct privilege of collaborating with Mark since 1995, when we partnered on a year-long business transformation project tasked with redesigning our field sales and service organization.

His ability to facilitate results-generating visioning sessions is unparalleled, providing a foundation for success for both short- and long-term organizational benefits. Mark connects at so many levels with those who work with him, helping to align people, process and technology in a way that makes both practical and professional sense.

In addition, I have personally experienced the profound impact of working with Mark on a full-time basis, an experience that truly helped to shape the person I am today. While our efforts and work product were focused on tangible deliverables, there was a parallel benefit to my personal life – in essence, establishing a crystal-clear vision for what success truly looks like, and crafting an actionable plan for getting there.

In early 2005 – 10 years following our first engagement with Mark and his team – I brought Mark back to work with my National Accounts and International Sales organization as we deployed a new more customer-focused organization structure. Some of the powerful elements of his work, which had a profound impact on my team, included:

• Developing an image of what you aspire to be
       • As a Team
       • Individually

• Exploring the meaning of personal empowerment and responsibility

• Bonding around common ideals as a cohesive / “connected” team

• Embracing change with confidence

Mark’s ability to truly make a difference in people – professionally and personally – is unique and powerful. To categorize him as merely a “consultant” or “coach” doesn’t do justice to the body of work he delivers. He has impacted my team in ways that will truly impact their short- and long-term professional performance, and I would highly recommend his services to any organization committed to taking their performance to a higher level.
