As a seasoned keynote speaker (in both Spanish and English), Patrick Mork inspires audiences on the topic of redefining resilience and how it is rapidly changing how organizations face the future in terms of purpose and value driven leadership. His vast global experience has led to high-profile speaking engagements including talks at Google IO, SXSW, World Mobile Congress, and the INSEAD Entrepreneurship Forum, and for clients including Walmart, Nestlé, Scotiabank, Falabella, and Unilever. These are enriched by the fact that Patrick has lived in 11 countries, is multicultural, multilingual and speaks four languages fluently.
Patrick’s work is grounded in the unique life stories, frameworks, and exercises from his recent best-selling book, Step Back and LEAP, his training as a certified Co-Active Coach and 20+ years working in leadership roles at tech startups as well as at global titans including PepsiCo and Google. It was through those experiences that he learned how crucial it is to accelerate organizational culture change to drive innovation and growth. It wasn’t all easy. Patrick hit a career wall and spent 9 months on a profound journey to find his purpose, reevaluate his own values and figure out what was next in his life. That experience helped him to redefine his own understanding of resilience and gain a clearer understanding of what people need to find a workplace that would support their definition of meaning and purpose.
Before embarking on his journey as an executive coach, he was a three-time award-winning Chief Marketing Officer with many years of leadership experience in technology companies, including Google and multiple VC-backed startups in Silicon Valley and Europe. Highlights of his marketing career include leading the team that created Google Play and being inducted into the Pocket Gamer Hall of Fame for his contributions to the mobile gaming industry.
Patrick firmly believes that resilience is more than just adapting to the challenges before you — it’s about cultivating energy that is fueled by purpose and values. Leaders who embrace purpose-driven resilience don’t just survive turmoil, they flourish, innovate, and create environments where teams can reach their full potential.
