Mark Whitehurst Email & Phone Number

Mark Whitehurst is a professional in their field. Colleagues describe them as "It was exactly ten years ago when Harvard Business School defined quiet leadership, and there couldn’t be a better way to describe Mark Whitehurst. Mark is the ultimate quiet leader who applies modesty, restraint, and tenacity to solve particularly difficult problems. Combining a wealth of technical infrastructure knowledge with experience from all kinds of situations, Mark leads his team to the right decisions all the time. As a natural leader, he has built very high performing teams at Expedia time and time again in multiple roles. And due to his great partnerships with both technology and business units, Mark is at the center of an informal network for everyone that wants tough infrastructure projects done (and done right). After about 12 years of work, there’s not a single person at the company that does not respect, admire or enjoy working with Mark, and I would not hesitate to recommend him for any position that calls for the highest levels of excellence in engineering, ethics and leadership." and "Simply put - Mark is bar none one of the most treasured team members I have ever had the pleasure to work alongside. I have known Mark since joining Expedia in 2000 and all the while I have seen him time and time again deliver with exemplary success. I can easily say that Expedia, as a whole, would not be the company it is today without both his guidance and technical expertise and leadership. There are those individuals who join a company only for themselves and their own means, they stay a short while take what they need then move on… Then there are those who can see a vision, who can take on the most outrageous challenges, confront the most difficult and daunting working conditions, those who can see a BHAG and say “No problem, we can do that!”, those who will sit in the trenches with you to see through to a common goal…and then do it all over again year after year after year. That is Mark Whitehurst. I’ve never had the pleasure to work directly for Mark but I have worked alongside him for over a decade and I know his team; and these too are individuals who have been at Expedia for many many years and I KNOW they all feel exactly as I do. If you’re looking for a long term solid investment for a true leader you’ve found him. I look forward to and will cherish many years of continued partnership, collaboration, and friendship with Mark."
