Hi, I’m Mark.
Let’s Talk About What It
Means to “Get It Done.”
For more than three decades, I’ve lived at the intersection of grit, integrity, and desire — the same values that define the Get It Done mindset I now share with teams and organizations around the world.
In a time when success demands courage and alignment, I help audiences shift their mindset — from complacency to conviction, from hesitation to action. My mission is simple: build teams that win together.

From Ohio Roots to the National Stage
I grew up in north-central Ohio, the son of a basketball coach and an educator. Competition, perseverance, and accountability weren’t just taught — they were lived.
At eight years old, I’d fall asleep listening to “Havlicek Stole the Ball” on my record player, dreaming of what was possible.
Those early days — mowing lawns, delivering newspapers, and learning to push through — taught me that nothing great happens without effort. That lesson has stayed with me in every season of life.

From the Hardwood to the Boardroom: Leadership Under Pressure
As a student-athlete at the University of Alabama, I played at the highest level and was later drafted by the Detroit Pistons. But my real calling came on the sidelines — leading, teaching, and developing others.
As a head coach, I learned how to lead when the lights are brightest. The job demanded clarity, poise, and the Get It Done mentality every single day.

The “Turnaround” Coach: From Struggle to Success
Over my career, I’ve become known as the coach who turns things around — helping teams rediscover their edge, their unity, and their confidence.
Now, I help organizations do the same. My framework for transformation applies both on and off the court:
