Faith Driven HR is both practical and inspiring. I was able to immediately apply Mark’s insights on Mission, Vision, and Values with a nonprofit client—helping them define guiding principles that shape daily decision-making. Even though the organization is not outwardly faith-based, they are intentionally weaving Christian values into their culture and frameworks. This book provides the clarity and tools to make that possible.
