Letter from Bob Goldberg sent out today….
With the creation of our Strategic Business Innovation and Technology (SBIT) team, it became increasingly clear to me that NAR’s need for a Chief Technology Officer and the advanced skill level that Mark Lesswing provided was no longer required, so we have eliminated that position as of today. Making reductions in the workforce is never easy, and I trust that you will join me in acknowledging the great contributions Mark made to NAR over the past 17 years and in wishing him great success in the next chapter of his career.
Mark is an incredibly talented guy with an enormous curiosity and really one of the nicest people I’ve met in the industry. I always enjoy seeing what the guys at CRT are working on. I have a CRT Labs sticker on the MacBook Pro I’m writing on now.
These transitions are tough, but sometimes the best thing too. Good luck to Mark on his continuing adventures.
Congratulations to Mark Lesswing you will be missed
Looking forward to see the strides you make as a Blockchain Entrepreneur.
Mark – has a contagious attitude that motivates others to help with the never-ending quest for top-tier Real Estate technology. Not sure where I’d be if he wasn’t around : (
Best of luck on the next chapter!
Mark is, quite simply, a class act. He has never been “too busy” for anyone. He’s always there to lend you advice, encouragement or a boost to your idea. He has pushed more envelopes than most people knew existed. And there’s no question that there’s still a lot more where that came from. I can’t wait to see what’s next.
Mark has been a huge asset for many years in the advancement of data standards and has been a past chair and longtime RESO Board Member and also Workgroup chair. We appreciate all of the contributions Mark has provided to the RESO organization and to the community in data standards as well as in technology innovation overall, and we not only wish him the best in his future endeavors but also hope he will continue participating within the RESO Community!
Thank you for your wonderfully creative years of service, Mark. You’ll be missed. Not only a great technician but a great bass player and singer, too! Best wishes as you continue creating.
Mark was just a great team member for NAR and he will be greatly missed. I have no doubt he will continue to do great things within our industry and I wish him all the best!
Mark is a renaissance man, a divergent thinker with humility, humor, kindness, and creativity. He did things I never thought possible at a trade association. This industry owes him tremendous thanks for his service over the past 17 years.
