The Balanced Way to Achieve Scale and Sale with CEO Mark Johnson
Jul 21, 2022Want to know what it takes to lead a company to scalable profits?
Today, I'm chatting with Mark Johnson. He most recently served as the Chief Executive Officer for Concord Servicing – a company he led to record-breaking growth that culminated in its sale from the founder to a private equity firm.
I met Mark more than ten years ago when I was advising the leaders at Wyndham Vacation Ownership on an organizational transformation project.
I'm in my "favorite executive" series, and Mark is on my list! Mark is a sage analyst and strategist who creates results through respect and honoring the system he leads. He leads his team to success because of his laser focus on balance between the customer, employee, and business results
He stands out among dozens of incredible executives because of his thoughtful and intentional approach to everything!
Since we worked together, he took on massive promotions – he became the Chief Hospitality Officer at Wyndham, a very different role than his real estate law background, and then eventually a CEO for another company. So I was curious about the role his sage, analytical, and strategic gifts played in these transitions.
I wanted Mark on the show as part of my "favorite executive series of all time" because I wanted him to share how he continued to use his sage archetype gifts as a C-Suite executive, which is usually comprised of more visionary/warrior types like former Disney COO Jim MacPhee who I interviewed in ep 40.
In this episode, you'll hear:
- How to adopt a new label when you make a significant transition in your career
- Why creating win-win-wins propels the business
- Why you need to hire your weaknesses and get objective outside opinions
- How consultants and coaches can attract C-suite Sage leaders like David
- Why you don't have to choose between purpose and profits
It turns out that using balanced, systems honoring approaches to business growth and change isn't reserved for consultants and coaches like us! Mark will share with you how to keep his eye on the balance between the customer, employee, and business results.
