Mark is the author of 99%. He has spent most of his career in business; for many years he ran the Strategy practice at PA Consulting Group.
During this time, he began to explore whether the tools and techniques of business strategy could be applied to understanding the health and stability of countries. This research led him to the uncomfortable conclusion that many developed countries – including the US and the UK – are unwittingly pursuing economic policies which will result in the unwinding of 20th century civilisation before we reach the year 2050. Hearteningly, he also concluded that this fate is entirely avoidable.
Mark is also the author of The Complete CEO, and The Zombie Economy.
Mark is a Visiting Professor at IE Business School and has a degree in Mathematics from Cambridge University.
