About M. A. "Mac" Curfman, PMP
"I have been blessed to build a successful 40-year career by being an entrepreneur and an iconoclastic thinker, and by serving others as a leader, trainer, coach, speaker, and consultant. My work has been used to touch and transform nearly 500,000 people from all over the globe."
Mac's journey began with a simple lesson from his mother: "A day without learning was like a day without sunshine." This philosophy has driven his commitment to lifelong learning and helping others achieve their full potential.
Following the wisdom of motivational speaker Zig Ziglar's three-step learning process—learn daily, apply what you learn, and circle back for more—Mac has built M.A.Curfman Learning with one vision: to create life-long learners who are transformed by their knowledge and catalyze change within their organizations from the inside out.
The late, great motivational speaker Zig Ziglar said that there are three steps to the learning process:
1. Find ways to learn every day.
2. Apply what you learn to make your work and your life better.
3. Circle back and find more things to learn.
That's what we preach…and practice!
