A Little About Stephen Marks

author-about
I help organizations identify roadblocks to their effectiveness and I intervene to neutralize restraints and free the organization's creative and constructive resources. I help create a culture of openness, trust, creativity and engagement where people listen to each other, communicate clearly, avoid misunderstandings, and resolve conflicts constructively while getting the job done.

It’s all about healthy organizations and healthy individuals.
