My mission is to improve people’s relationship to their work and careers in the micro-sense and help organizations to manage their hiring, performance, learning, and engagement in the macro sense. As a career HR and talent tools guy, I have a strong passion for helping people achieve their fullest potential. Every survey and study we read indicates that fewer people are engaged with their work. Yet with work/life balance dissolving, more people define themselves by their jobs. This is just wrong. We now have the technology to tear down the barriers to perfect labor markets, connect people to the right resources and mentors, and empower them to achieve their desired lives and careers.With a masters degree in human capital from Cornell’s school of Industrial and Labor Relations coupled with practical experience leading in the most talent-focused organizations, I have worked towards this goal from a number of directions:* As an agile cloud-based product director / manager at Intellum, Trinet and Successfactors, I designed and built the market-leading software solutions across the talent and learning categories.* As an innovative HR/IT leader at Facebook, Amazon and Linkedin, I have partnered with the HRBPs and business functions to build, buy, and implement unique consumer-grade tools to support people’s self-service needs.* Early in my career as an implementation project manager at Kadiri, I embodied the startup mentality by helping to pioneer the implementation of web-based applications With clear thinking, technology, and good old fashioned work, we can finally fulfill the decades old promises of human resources. Let’s get it done.AKA / common misspellings: Mark Marasco, Mark Morasco, Mark Marosco, Marco Morosco, Marco Morasco, Mark , Marco
