In this episode, host Dave Fiore speaks with Mark McNees, the social entrepreneur in residence in the Jim Moran College of Entrepreneurship at Florida State University. Off campus, Mark is best known as the founder of Element3 Church and RedEye Coffee – experiences that helped shape his focus today. The native of Southern California ran his father’s successful heavy equipment rental company before he felt the call to give up his comfortable but unfulfilling life to pursue the mission of church planting across the country in Tallahassee. He discovered a love for serving people and the desire to have a global impact without being afraid to ruffle a few feathers along the way.

Mark is a husband, father, speaker and sought-after consultant who still follows his dad’s motto that in every situation, “there is a way.”
