Tom Mackin focuses his consulting practice on teambuilding through Stop at Nothing’s Self-Leadership and Empowerment and train-the-trainer programs. He helps clients customize leadership programs for their particular industry and specific organization. The resulting programs are tailored for groups of peers going though an in-house process together.

Tom joined Stop at Nothing in 1998. Like so many of the staff, he was first a client, as director of training for the Merrill Lynch Credit Corporation. His 17-year career with Merrill Lynch was highlighted by his participation on the team that won the Malcolm Baldridge National Quality Award. “I learned so much about leading in a quality environment,” he said.

Since becoming part of the Stop at Nothing team, Tom has established strong relationships with clients including International Speedway Corporation, Medtronic, Coach, American Express, and Sprint/Nextel. “I get paid to do what I love,” he said. “I really enjoy the experience of re-igniting people’s passion about what they do. I help them reconnect to their jobs, enjoy their work more and be fulfilled by it. And that’s fulfilling to me.”

Tom earned his bachelor’s degree in journalism from Temple University in Philadelphia. The father of two daughters, he is involved in their activities as a basketball coach, soccer coach, and Sunday school teacher. He is on the board of directors of his local National Multiple Sclerosis chapter and is a staunch supporter of the literacy organization, Learn to Read.
