Alongsider is in a rich and wide ranging conversation with, Mark Goyder, Founder of Tomorrow's Company formed to encourage business to find and take its place within the global and local community in which it seeks to flourish. The 8th child of parents who greatly influenced the young Mark - from his mother he received the gift of 'peacemaker' and from his father - 'battling'. All this has been foundational to Mark and built further by those who have come alongside him at University encouraging him to go further - instilling self belief. Also in his career at GEC (now BAE) and elsewhere where alongsiders have engendered courage to face situations he may have felt less equipped to navigate. A fluent and insightful guest who shares generously of his experience and learning, where the brave and direct approach of others has seen him grow. Mark weaves together a rich tapestry of threads, spanning silos and decades. An evident enthusiastic visionary (Enneagram 7) one of his closest friends, very sadly untimely lost, called him 'Joyboy'. This is a person very comfortable in his own skin who embraces the third stage of life with gusto. He brings an holistic view which is prescient, relevant and inspires brave action. Enjoy!
