Testimonials

In my role as chair of the San Francisco FENG Chapter, one of our members, Bob Henderson, a Sickles Certified Chief Capital Officer, recommended Mark W. Sickles as a speaker for one of our chapter meetings. Mark’s resulting presentation on the CFO of the future was remarkable.

Mark is CEO of SuperOrg, Inc. and a leading expert in conveying why and how companies that embrace the tenets of Total Capital Management produce sustainable superior performance. His presentation included research on CEOs calling for a broadening of CFOs’ responsibilities, why the title of CFO is too narrow, and why Chief Capital Officer (CCO) is a more appropriate title. Mark also clearly presented how the CCO works with the CEO and board to sustainably improve the performance of all elements of a company's capital to consistently produce superior levels of shareholder and stakeholder value.

I highly recommend retaining Mark as your next keynote speaker. He will amaze you.

There are consultants, and then there is Mark W. Sickles.

Mark has this rare ability to make you step back and rethink business beyond the usual “optimize this, cut that” conversations. His Total Capital Management approach genuinely challenges leaders to think at a systems level — smarter, faster, stronger organizations, not just better spreadsheets.

What stands out most is his ability to create value where companies thought there was none left — or where value had simply been lost along the way. And now, seeing him integrate the AI component into that thinking makes the conversations even more interesting — not using AI as a buzzword, but as another layer to rethink how organizations create, protect, and scale value.

Honestly, listening to Mark sometimes feels like meeting the Harry Potter of management and transformation. Not because of magic tricks — but because he sees connections and possibilities most people completely miss.

Refreshing perspective, challenging conversations, and definitely not conventional thinking.
