Mark Wright

Mark Wright is a communications consultant and executive coach. He teaches leaders to communicate with clarity, credibility, and confidence in high-stakes moments, and to use storytelling to deliver powerful presentations that connect with people and move their organizations forward. With more than 35 years in broadcast journalism, including major-market television news anchoring in Seattle, Mark brings real-world pressure testing and narrative discipline to his work with senior executives.

A four-time Emmy Award winner and an inductee into the Murrow College Hall of Achievement, Mark specializes in storytelling, communication for live audiences and on camera, and crisis communication. He teaches executives to uncover and tell their origin stories--the experiences and convictions that shaped them--and connect those stories to their organization's purpose.  Mark's philosophy is if you want people to love your organization, you have to tell them a story.

Mark is a member and past president of the Rotary Club of Seattle. Throughout his career, he has worked at the intersection of storytelling and trust, observing firsthand what builds credibility and what erodes it. He partners with leaders to translate insight into stories that are heard, believed, and remembered.
