Mark Marrott has literally had to rebuild from the ground up. A 40-foot fall and years in a wheelchair reshaped how he leads and connects—turning big ideas like empathy, faith, and grit into everyday practices instead of just nice words. As a business builder, keynote speaker, and host of the KneeToKnee podcast, he sits down with executives, athletes, first responders, and everyday heroes to explore how real human connection drives resilience, belonging, and performance. He’s an introvert who’s spent a career in outward-facing roles, and he cares deeply about helping quieter leaders build authentic connections on their own terms—without pretending to be someone they’re not.
