Keynote speaker for resilience and change
What you're booking
Find Your Polar Bear is a keynote on resilience through change, built with psychologists, that helps teams see change as an exciting challenge, not a threat. It draws on Mark's 103-day expedition through the Arctic's Northwest Passage, and Google, Heineken, Bosch, M&S and more have all booked it.
