Bio
Ben Francisco Maulbeck
It's difficult to capture the exceptional scope of Marvin's talents and gifts in just a few words. He is perhaps the most skillful operations leader I have ever worked with; he is constantly learning, innovating, and developing new systems to improve all organizational systems. He is particularly unique as an HR leader: he combines deep technical expertise in HR systems and policies with a strong commitment to social justice and to making sure that every employee is supported and affirmed in their full unique authentic selves. As a result of his leadership, Funders for LGBTQ Issues has become one of the leading trailblazers in developing social justice-oriented HR and administrative practices. Marvin is equally skillful in the financial aspects of his work. He works collaboratively with all staff and the board to develop an annual budget that addresses the needs of all programs and organizational functions, advancing the organization's mission while also controlling costs in thoughtful ways. With yet another hat on, Marvin has also managed the logistics of many of our events and programs, particularly our annual Funding Forward conference. His astounding knack for organizational systems has made Funding Forward one of the most smoothly run - and fun! - conferences in the philanthropic sector. It's been an honor to work alongside Marvin for nearly eight years, and I hope I'll have the opportunity to do so again!

Marvin is a transformational CFO and business leader who has the unique ability to proactively identify business issues and be a trusted advisor who helps drive business profitability. Marvin and I worked together, across the table, in a CFO/C-Suite advisor relationship. I was particularly impressed by Marvin's ability to explain and provide nuance to support sophisticated financial strategies and trends. Marvin can successfully engage crucial conversations with any team. I would recommend Marvin for his in-depth knowledge of finance, accounting, Human Resources, systems, and operations. He is a thought leader and strategic thinker. After you work with Marvin, you'll wonder how you ever managed without him.
