Bio
Geoffrey Hamm
I worked for Mark in Product Marketing at the Public Library of Science. I joined the Marketing team there from another position in the organization because I liked what I saw from Mark's leadership. He is a motivational leader who gets the best out of his team. He combines his lengthy history in the publishing industry with his keen eye for Marketing trends and his innate ability to relate to people at every level to meet targets and organizational objectives. In 2017 Mark's team beat its goals by double digits. That's an accurate reflection of the kind of leadership Mark brings to the table. As someone who reported to him, I appreciated his candor, his accessibility, and his mentorship. Mark empowers his team to make strategic choices and supports them when they take risks. His enthusiasm for the job and the people he manages are contagious, and instructive, and he cultivates a positive work environment. Any organization looking for enthusiastic and committed leadership would be well served by hiring Mark.
Glenn Bisignani
Mark is a highly effective marketing professional that knows how to build a marketing team and fine-tune it to drive organizational goals. His ability to work cross-functionally and align resources to achieve objectives is second to none. Mark has deep knowledge of scientific publishing that comes from years of careful analysis and experience. Dovetailing with this is his passion for data mining. His innate ability to understand market trends will easily translate to new industries should he decide to move beyond scientific publishing. Any organization that is looking to take their marketing department to new levels will find Mark a valuable partner.
