EVERYTHING I DO IS ABOUT

HELPING PEOPLE
ACHIEVE MORE
THAN THEY
THOUGHT
POSSIBLE.

– Mark Pollock

 

 

WE CAN’T PREVENT
CHALLENGES APPEARING,
BUT WE CAN CHOOSE
HOW WE DEAL
WITH THEM.

– Mark Pollock

 

WE MUST BE DRIVEN ENOUGH
TO COMPETE BUT,
PERHAPS MORE
IMPORTANTLY,
BRAVE ENOUGH
TO COLLABORATE.

– Mark Pollock

 

Mark’s Story

Unbroken by blindness in 1998, Mark became an adventure athlete competing in ultra-endurance races across deserts, mountains, and the polar ice caps including being the first blind person to race to the South Pole.

In 2010, a fall from a second story window nearly killed him. Mark broke his back and the damage to his spinal cord left him paralysed.

Now he is on a new expedition, this time to cure paralysis in our lifetime by exploring the intersection where humans and technology collide

    “At our recent kick-off for Citrix Northern Europe, Mark shared his incredible story of how to adapt and remain resilient in the face of ongoing uncertainty and change. As well as Mark’s keynote outlining his approach to tackling challenges, he shared a mental model for how we can all turn challenges into opportunities during an interview led by his colleague and co-host, Paula Cunniffe. The impact was fantastic and opened the door for all of us to reflect on how we are tackling our own challenges both personal and at work”
