Mark Yee is a Head Of Account Management at Butler, Shine, Stern & Partners. Colleagues describe him as "Throughout my entire career in advertising, Mark has been a driving force in building my role as a solid advertising professional. Having first started as an AAE, Mark shaped my career early on and helped me hone my attention to detail, big picture thinking, charisma, and proactive planning, all skills which Mark embodies and exemplifies.
He's great with clients and cares deeply for everyone around him, no matter the department, but especially and fiercely of his team. I can't say how awesome of a boss Mark has been in my life and how much his mentorship has helped me thrive in an ever-changing industry.
With a supportive yet hands off approach, Mark will let his team grow and learn without hand holding, but will gladly make the time to support you, even with several other team members/direct reports. If you're having a bad day, he's there. If you're overwhelmed, he knows when it's time to take something off your plate. Even if you aren't reaching for help, he'll gladly give it to you because he knows when you need it. No matter how long his to do list and no matter how full his calendar, Mark is the first to make sure his team is doing the best that they can at 110%.
Mark's also managed several of my mentors, and all of them have been instrumental in furthering my path in account management.
I'd recommend Mark in a heart beat as the best boss ever and know that where ever he goes, another team somewhere will be just as lucky as I was." and "Being in media across multiple clients has allowed me to work with many people over the years, and Mark is my 'gold standard' for Account Directors.
I've always been amazed by the depth of knowledge he possesses - whether it's about the client's business, past or current campaigns, digital or offline media plans - anything regarding our clients.
He not only understands media, but asks the right questions that make our plans even better. He truly understands how media best functions as part of the big picture, and knows the details as well. That tends to be rare. I've yet to work with anyone that comes close to matching the level of his attention to detail.
Truly a team player, Mark fosters great relationships with teams cross-functionally. He's fair, respectful, and handles everything with impressive tact.
I only hope I have the chance to work with Mark more throughout my career. I highly recommend Mark - without any bit of hesitation. His talents are a big win for any organization he's a part of."
