Bio
Chris Linn
I had the privilege of working with Mark while I was on Bassett's leadership team. He's an exceptional manager of Lean processes and principals who is adept at engaging all levels of employees. Bassett's robust culture of continuous improvement is due in large part to Mark's passion, patience and skills at coaching and leading people through the obstacles associated with culture change. He is always willing to share his knowledge and lessons learned. If I had any business process that needed fixing or improvement, Mark would be the first person I'd call.
Terry Deuel
Mark was an active participant in the lean training sessions. His enthusiasm and thoughtful questioning added significantly to the experience. I would recommend him based on his open mind and energy level as well as his real-life experience.
