Mark Gooch Email and Phone Number

I partner with SMBs to develop & align people strategies with business goals, resulting in enhanced efficiencies, profitability, & organizational well-being. An accomplished business consultant with scalable skills in operations leadership, project management, & employee development who has led organizations & departments through up & down business cycles across multiple industries. With Insperity, I am an Account Executive for clients in various industries ranging from manufacturing, auto repair, medical device, pharma research, & public broadcasting to name a few. Our teams help them solve complex HR problems & become employer-of-choice by providing administrative relief & helping to execute their employee value proposition. Operationally, I have built high-performing cross-functional teams with disciplines ranging from financial processing, customer service, hospitality management, & government services. I lead by knowing what motivates individuals to collectively leverage data to solve complex business challenges while ensuring they thrive in their roles & become more agile in today’s rapidly changing markets. Whether it's a C-level executive or teammate, I treat equally with no secret formula for building trust: ask, understand, co-develop the plan, execute, measure & show value, repeat. I am a bit adventurous & find purpose in my roles when I can lead the charge to (respectfully) challenge status-quo thinking & facilitate operational innovation. As such, I have intentionally taken career opportunities that provided these challenges while adapting resourcefully to new industries & developing myself along the way. Unafraid to think big, experiment small, make decisions under ambiguity, & take measured risks.
