What Makes Mark Lee STAND OUT?
Mark is regularly described as an entertaining, engaging and inspirational presenter who evidently has a lasting impact.
By profession Mark is a chartered accountant but he has never fitted the archetypal stereotype. In the early 1990s Accountancy Age magazine regularly pictured him and referenced his love of magic tricks in their back cover features on unconventional accountants. He has since been described as ‘the most networked accountant in the UK’ and is regularly ranked as one of the most influential speakers and commentators online. For many years he was one of the ‘go to’ accountancy personalities when the media wanted credible and independent quotes or interviews.
From the start of this century Mark has been invited to speak at dozens of prestigious conferences and seminars for accountants and lawyers. In 2006 he chose to move away from being a tax adviser, preferring instead to focus only on those elements of his career he had most enjoyed over the years – speaking, writing and mentoring.
As his bookmark shaped business cards note, Mark is also a ‘debunker’ keen to dispel myths, misconceptions and hype related to those topics of which he has a deep knowledge and interest.

If you are looking for an energetic, engaging and entertaining speaker – I would certainly recommend Mark Lee. Mark facilitated and presented at our European Conference and aside from delivering on the day, he took the time and care to understand our organisation, our delegates and tailored his delivery accordingly.
Kreston was delighted that Mark was able to speak at the Kreston EMEA Conference in Rome – The presentation was lively and interactive and I’ve no doubt that Kreston partners will confidently STAND OUT when bidding for more work. 90% of the delegates scored Mark – good to excellent, which is outstanding
Mark Lee strode onto the stage at our ICPA Conference with a huge smile, a few props and a welter of help and advice to impart to the delegates.
At the end the smiles were on the faces of the delegates, myself included, because they had just enjoyed a thought provoking, intelligent and entertaining seminar from a man frankly at the top of his game.
I watched as the audience laughed whilst making copious notes and at no time were they talked down to or indeed sold to.
Accountancy at the small practice level can be a solitary profession and accountants are notoriously shy and introverted yet Mark was able to get them involved and vocal which could well be his greatest achievement.
I’m glad I asked Mark to appear and I’m glad Mark agreed to appear and much more importantly the delegates were glad that Mark came.
