Mark Carter doesn’t just deliver keynotes or facilitate workshops, he creates cinematic, rich learning experiences that spark insight, shift behaviour, and leave a lasting impact. With more than 28 years’ international experience, Mark has helped global brands, blue-chip companies and SME’s elevate leadership, culture, sales, and adaptability through transformative learning and development.
His TEDx talk served as the cinematic trailer for his globally published book, Add Value (Wiley), and he is the founder of a learning management system for SMEs, enabling organisations to translate strategy into behaviour and performance.
Mark’s journey began leading teams across Europe for Contiki Holidays, where a tour bus became a real-world laboratory for human behaviour, decision-making, and leadership under pressure. This shaped his philosophy that human connection drives performance, a principle he has carried into nearly three decades of corporate work as a respected global learning & development professional.
Whether it’s an arena of thousands or intimate workshops, Mark fuses masterful storytelling, behavioural science and actionable frameworks into experiences that are as memorable as they are practical. His work consistently bridges the gap between inspiration and execution, helping organisations future proof their leaders and cultures.
His work is regularly featured across TV, radio, print, and industry media, with clients praising his energy, authenticity, bespoke approach and tangible results. As one delegate put it: “MC should be bottled and drunk daily!”
Born in England, raised in Scotland, and seasoned through world travel, Mark is now based in Australia, blending a global perspective with local insight. An accredited behavioural analyst, his philosophy is anchored in three core principles: Add Value, Be Your Word, and Provide Creative, Selfless Service: the foundation of every keynote, workshop and hosting engagement.
