Returning to the podcast today is Mark Monchek. Mark joined us for a conversation about the culture of opportunity about a year ago and we have the chance to hear his insight again.
Mark is the founder and Chief Opportunity Officer of Opportunity Lab, a strategy consulting firm focused on company growth through conscious business. Opportunity Lab applies models of growth to companies navigating through disruptive change and finds opportunity for sustained growth even in the most difficult situations. Mark is also the author of Culture of Opportunity: How to Grow Your Business in an Age of Disruption, a fascinating book on this very topic.
Mark has a fascinating take on business and how business should be. His view is refreshing but also challenging as he talks expertly on what types of businesses will thrive in the coming years post-Covid. It is definitely a different and unique approach to business today, but a conversation that needs to be had.
