Leading Systemic Change, Part One: The Discovery Journey

another flood?

A propelling inspiration at Portals of Perception is the rise of the next-generation of leaders emerging in all the core spaces of science, health and wellbeing, and business and social entrepreneurship.

We’re in a conversation with Mark Horoszowski, Co-founder and CEO of MovingWorlds, a global platform that connects professionals, corporations, and investors sharing a common purpose to build a more sustainable and equitable planet.

Mark describes the early and continuing inspiration that drives his interest and care for global issues, and the journey to align his personal passions and values with a commitment to have an impact in the world.

Mark takes a deeper look at the diverse elements that must come together to found and build a global enterprise, from personal readiness and commitment, to identifying the market opportunity that delivers real value and generates revenue. Underlying and energizing the endeavor is a life-long love of learning; every day, even if it's a routine task, Mark describes the element of learning that gives him the energy to keep going.

The problems that I want to work on are the larger systemic problems, that people tend to shy away from, because of size and because of economic viability. So I learned a lot about some of the things that I didn't want, which helped me then to focus on the things that I really did. I think that was probably my biggest discovery.
