Mark Albion
Making A Life

Mark received his 15 minutes of fame as a Harvard Business School professor in the 1980s profiled on 60 Minutes as a top young (under 40) business-school professor in the country, which earned him a hug from Ronald Reagan. He left Harvard in 1988 to develop a community for service-minded MBAs with some SVN colleagues and founded Net Impact in 1993. He wrote the New York Times Best Seller, Making a Life, Making a Living, based on his monthly (since 1996) 5000-word e-newsletter that now reaches readers in 88 countries (www.makingalife.com). Known to his two daughters and silver-anniversary wife as the man who rode across Afghanistan on horseback, he's been traveling September 2006-April 2007 to about 45 business schools on his latest book, written for SVN: True to Yourself: Leading a Values Based Business.
