In this episode of the Organized Chaos Cafe with Ben Chan, we welcome Mark Rozner, a project management expert with over four decades of experience in healthcare, financial services, and corporate environments.

Mark shares his unique journey from aspiring chef to leadership roles in project management and we shift our conversation into personal and emotional topics, focusing on managing grief.

We discuss how he applied project management principles to navigate these difficult experiences, highlighting the importance of stakeholder management, decision frameworks, and servant leadership.

While this is a hard topic, we hope that this episode provides some insight for those looking to understand and manage their own grieving process or helping others navigate through theirs.
