“I have worked with Michael Leigh and his Firm for many years.  They have helped me clarify our corporate mission. Importantly, their experience allowed them to constantly probe and question us and thus avoid costly mistakes. Simply stated, they added immeasurable value in many more ways than I could ever have anticipated. Their key differentiation is acute vision, independent objectivity, rapid & accurate situation assessment, broad understanding of rapidly changing technology and, above all, how it will affect our businesses and our resource needs. I have no hesitation in recommending The Management Firm as a valuable asset to any organization constantly striving to be best in class”.

“Mark played a pivotal role in transforming the Broadband Forum. He made seminal contributions across many of the new projects to enable the Forum to re-position itself successfully in the rapidly evolving global broadband ecosystem. He also introduced state-of-the-art collaborative tools to accelerate delivery of new work.”

“Having worked for service providers such as CenturyLink for 25 years it’s great to see someone who really gets their requirements and business needs. The transformation of Broadband Forum and masses of high quality work and commitment raised the standard of all the work of the Forum. It was great to work with Mark and I highly recommend his Firm.”

"As a new open source project, Mark was instrumental in helping us position our message within industry. He guided us through the process of creating our value statements in the form of white papers, webinars, presentations and graphics using visuals and language that would resonate with the audience regardless if they were a C-Level executive or a software engineer. Just a great experience all around."

“I really appreciated working with Mark on a number activities. Mark has been a great inspirer and key contributor. Overall, Mark has a deep insight of the Telco market and has an instinctive attitude in translating a technical solution into its benefits and market impact.”

“Mark Fishburn has been one of the most significant marketing leaders in the ICT industry over the last two decades. If you’ve encountered marketing from MEF and/or Broadband Forum, you have almost certainly seen, heard or read his work even if you didn’t know he was the creator. Based on almost a decade working with Mark in both the MEF and Broadband Forum, I would strongly recommend him to anyone looking to clearly articulate what makes products and services successful in both business and consumer networking markets.”
