The Accidental Consultant: Mark Caswell’s Story

Rezzer Rewind

Who doesn’t love a good plot twist?

Mark Caswell’s story has a few.

Resultant’s second CEO stumbled into consulting after starting his career in aerospace engineering. Following his curiosity, Mark landed at Resultant, thinking it would be a quick stopover.

Six years later, he found himself in the cockpit—right as the business was really taking off.

It was exciting.

It was terrifying.

But through it all, Mark brought wisdom and a sense of groundedness to every role he’s held—even the ones without a formal title.

In his conversation with Kate, Mark gets vulnerable about the ups, downs, and everything in between. You’ll hear him spill secrets and hard-earned wisdom about consulting, curiosity, and careers that can benefit just about anyone.
