Book Mark
What if giving could be the key to unlocking your biggest breakthroughs?
Mark Young doesn’t just share ideas—he challenges people to act. In his book Radical Generosity, he redefines giving as a powerful tool for transformation. Rather than seeing it as an obligation, Mark shows how generosity can unlock new opportunities, shift mindsets, and create lasting success in both business and life.
This book will show you how to:
Give in a way that multiplies impact—for you and those around you.
Turn generosity into a competitive advantage in life and business.
Break free from scarcity thinking and adopt an abundance mindset.
GIVING WITH PURPOSE
For Mark, giving back isn’t just a value—it’s a way of life. Whether consulting with business leaders, engaging with audiences, or serving on nonprofit boards, his goal is always to identify what’s stopping people from taking their first step—and help them push past it. He believes true impact comes from showing up and taking action, helping others discover their own capacity to lead, give, and grow. Because philanthropy isn’t just about writing checks—it’s about rewriting the story of what’s possible.
Get involvedEXPANDING PERSPECTIVES
Mark doesn’t travel to escape—he travels to grow. Whether walking the Champs-Élysées or working on relief efforts in Africa, each journey fuels his creativity and broadens his perspective. Travel reminds him that growth happens outside comfort zones, and the conversations he has along the way always come back to the same theme: breaking barriers and just starting.
