Published October 5, 2023 • 2 Min Read
In this episode of Chatter That Matters, Mark Ferrier shares his father’s journey from his comfortable, suburban home to Millhaven Maximum Security prison. Mark chose to erase the stigma of his Dad in prison by reframing what his father did as a mistake, not a failure as a person. Acceptance and permission to make mistakes have become Mark’s greatest watchwords.
This mindset served Mark’s 25-year journey of entrepreneurship, creativity and passion well. Mark built several outstanding marketing businesses, all driven by a culture where people have permission to try.
Today, Mark is Co-Founder and Managing Partner of & Capital. He draws upon his experiences to help small business owners in infrastructure services grow their companies while concentrating on the human side of business.
Hear Mark’s remarkable journey, his views on what it takes to be a great entrepreneur, and what he believes Canada needs more of to be great.
