Mark serves as Global Executive Sponsor of the OUT & Allies Network, where he acts as a sounding board for network activities, secures funding for external memberships, mentors LGBT+ leaders, and shares their most significant accomplishments with the rest of the firm. He continuingly partners with the leadership team to revisit policies and approach LGBT+ issues from a thoughtful perspective, including participation in public anti-discrimination letters and the earlier Supreme Court amicus briefs in support of marriage equality. He is a vocal advocate for inclusion, openly appealing against legislation which was intended to discriminate against transgender people in the workplace. Additionally, he sponsors ongoing memberships with external organisations such as OUTstanding, Out & Equal, and Stonewall, and earlier this year, spoke about his external engagement as an Ally at the Out Leadership CEO Summit.
