You are going to LOVE this conversation with Mark P. Fisher on Inspiring Growth as a leader!

If you like The Rainmaker Fundraising Podcast, you can thank Mark. He’s the person who inspired me to launch this podcast!
I first met Mark when he and his team led the national marketing effort for the Paramount Pictures movie, Same Kind of Different As Me, and we worked together to craft a Red Carpet Event strategy to market this film nationally in support of Gospel Rescue Missions through a partnership with City Gate Network.
In this episode, Mark and I covered a ton of ground in a very candid conversation about his personal leadership journey.
Here are some of the key points we hit in this discussion:
- Mark’s personal story of going 100+ miles per hour as a leader until he hit a wall…and it nearly killed him. He talks about how this experience helped him reset his priorities and focus, and create Inspiring Growth, his life’s calling.
- The importance of caring for yourself as a leader in order to allow you to truly serve those you lead.
- The power of kindness, and how it helps you lead well.
- The importance of resilient thinking, and how that allows you to pick up the pieces and move on after failure or setbacks.
- As a leader, why you should strive to believe the best about people, and how that can radically change the culture in your organization.
- How to use a post mortem or after action review to overcome failure and create learning that will move your organization forward in a healthy way, even when a major project or initiative doesn’t turn out the way you’d hoped.
