Color Marketing Group Honors Mark Woodman with Lifetime Membership Award

The Color Marketing Group (CMG) Lifetime Membership Award is a prestigious honor bestowed by CMG’s Board of Directors upon long-standing members who have consistently gone above and beyond in their service to the organization. Recipients of this award have been CMG members for at least 20 years and have made significant contributions through committee work, volunteer efforts, and leadership roles, including service on CMG’s Board of Directors and Executive Committee.

This year, CMG proudly recognizes Mark Woodman as the latest recipient of the Lifetime Membership Award. A passionate advocate for color and design, Mark has been an invaluable member of CMG for decades. Serving as CMG President from 2011 to 2013, he led the organization through challenging times following the global recession. Under his leadership, CMG embraced innovation, introducing the ChromaZone® workshops, which revolutionized the organization’s color forecasting process. This regional, collaborative approach laid the foundation for CMG’s World Color Forecast™, which integrates insights from four international regions.

Mark’s career and life are a celebration of color, and his contributions to CMG extend well beyond his presidency. He continues to serve on the Color Alert® Committee, where his eloquent and inspiring writing informs and engages the CMG community each month. He also continues to be active with the development and steering of the North America forecast. We are deeply grateful for Mark’s dedication and are thrilled to honor his extraordinary service with this award.
