Most recently, Mark presented at TedEx Brisbane.

We’re excited to have him back for CAC24! Mark will be presenting two sessions for us that will focus on:

1. Success comes in many shapes and sizes. Explore his 3 tips for amplifying it.
   • Notice how / when your goals creep.
   • Reward yourself for achieving your original goals and for re-calibrating new goals
   • Embrace and celebrate all the other gains / outcomes from your action that seem ancillary to your goals.
2. Plan well, adapt better. Why he is firm on purpose but flexible on pathway.
   • Good preparation is a valuable foundation, but we can never see all the possibilities.
   • Action (especially when embracing uncertainty) liberates possibilities.
   • Things work, things fail. Own where you are at and make plans, take action to keep going.
