Creating a Culture That Changes Lives with Mark Faulkner

Jun 23, 2026 | The Professional Noticer

On this week’s episode of The Professional Noticer, Andy welcomes Baptist Health Care President and CEO Mark Faulkner.

Tune in to hear Mark and Andy discuss why culture is the sum of everyday behaviors, why leaders must model the expectations they set, and why even small acts of kindness can leave a lifelong impact. Listen as Mark shares why he believes cultural fit matters as much as competence, how stories teach better than lectures, and why success can quickly give way to complacency. Above all, he offers a powerful challenge: find your purpose and pursue it wholeheartedly.
