You and your New Adventure
You were created for a purpose, given gifts and talents to fulfill that purpose and work prepared in advance to do. So many today are unemployed, underemployed, or stuck where they're at; I can help!
I have a special offer if you need insight into your new adventure.
You'll take your Talent Insights DISC profile. We'll review it together virtually to explore and build your summary. We'll then schedule another virtual meeting to discuss your profile further and answer any questions you may have.
Your investment: $495
Clients have told me they experience their "AHA! moment" when working with me—when everything clicks together, and they can finally see a clear path forward, professionally and personally.
You and Your Leadership
​
The number one responsibility of leaders is to believe​
in others before they believe in themselves. The second is to have their best interest at heart. Doing these two things creates a desire in your people to want to live up to your expectations. Simple to say, hard to do.
Let's connect and explore how, working with you and your leadership team, we can achieve new levels of trust, productivity, and accomplishment!
​
You and Your Company
Business is an incredible concept. If you treat it well, it can become one of life's truly great adventures. Imagine building a team of quietly confident professionals who can rise to any challenge and accomplish any objective.
For over three decades, I have come alongside numerous companies to accomplish this incredible work together. If you feel like you have a good group of folks and care about your customers, but you're just stuck, let's connect. Together, we'll find a way to break through!

ABOUT
ABOUT
Mark King is a recognized authority in unlocking the true potential in organizations and helping them achieve real success. Over 3 decades ago, Mark stepped out in faith to embrace the core principle that, for any organization to achieve real success, they had to focus on the success of others first. Mark believes when every individual is focused on helping clients, the company, and their team succeed first, there is no challenge that can’t be overcome and no goal that can’t be accomplished.
​
Living with an OutwardFocus results in success by improving communication, problem-solving, and teamwork. After working with hundreds of companies, ranging from small businesses to Fortune 500 companies, and teaching thousands of leaders and employees, Mark has gone from believing these results could happen, to proving these results WILL happen. If your organization is stuck, if you’ve got good people but just can’t seem to move forward, and if you know there’s got to be a better way, then maybe you, your company, and Mark are meant to work together.

Why Outward Focus
Mark has been a trusted advisor to me for over 4 years. He came into my life at a very challenging time and provided just the healthy perspective and guidance I needed to navigate some choppy waters in business and personal life. I count myself very blessed to have Mark as a member of my personal advisory board. His humble spirit and Godly wisdom have made a profound impact on me personally and I’m sure for countless others. I couldn’t recommend him and his services more fully.

...Mark is gifted in working with many different types of individuals and groups – at all levels. His success comes from his ability to coach, facilitate, and lead through a very strong set of values and focus on helping others succeed. Mark is also an engaging public speaker. He is highly motivating with his commanding presence, provocative questioning, and principled storytelling. He has an ability to provoke thoughtful reflection about the importance of “how” success can be achieved by serving others.”

Working with Mark is fun, personal and inspirational. His methodology of living by success principles has proven to be effective. He is deeply committed to helping individuals within an organization achieve self-realization and accomplish results they didn’t believe possible.

I wanted Sales, Leadership, and Development training for a chosen team. I got that and so much more. Building on a foundation that was laid by our founder Dave Ulrich, Mark has helped me think "outside the box" by challenging my attitudes and assumptions. I was able to build on the ones that moved us forward and change or eliminate the ones that held us back. We made a real shift from being busy to being productive. I was given permission to take action on what I already believed in... "to serve others first" and Mark was instrumental in bringing that to the forefront. Thanks, Mark
