Corporate Executives & Boards of Directors
"Mark Thompson is the world's most prolific CEO coach —
from Virgin's Richard Branson, Charles Schwab,
WorldBank President, Dr. Jim Yong Kim, to Pinterest Cofounder, Evan Sharp.
He's now helped over 80 global CEOs and their Boards accelerate the growth and scale of the C-Level team and build the best bench."
— Dr. Cliff Nass, Founder of the Stanford Realtime Venture Design Lab and Stanford CEO Summit
Mark was instrumental as an experienced voice, trusted by our Board during my journey into the CEO role. With so many stakeholders involved, his perspective helped me think about the leadership opportunities I had to further develop my role as leader of Qualcomm.
