Mark’s Crisis Communications Workshop was entertaining, engaging, and valuable. He spent a day with members of the President’s Cabinet and our Emergency Management Team. He really did his research, as he knew much about my background and current events at our university that touched on his workshop topic. Mark’s credentials are impeccable, and if you are seeking a highly experienced individual who can deliver the best education on crisis communications in a short period of time, Mark Weaver is the choice.

Mark Weaver and his team provide exemplary service in times of significant need. I emailed him at 1:15am asking for help with a crisis and – although I was expecting a call the next business day – he called me back in 10 minutes! Mark’s care epitomizes responsiveness, professionalism, empathy, and mission sensitivity. He brings his multifaceted experience and commitment to excellence to complex and sensitive situations in ways that not only help organizations weather difficulties but situate them to adapt and improve through them.
