Everyone has a story… some just happen to create a ripple effect of positive impact that transforms millions of lives. That is Matt’s story.
After graduating from UCLA’s Anderson School of Management, Matt pursued a career in the music industry. As SVP of Robert Kardashian’s music marketing company, Matt had the pleasure of working on projects for the biggest artists in the world, including U2, Coldplay, Avril Lavigne, Tim McGraw and more.
He had achieved success, as defined by our Western culture, but woke up on a Monday morning with a massive panic attack that turned into chronic anxiety disorder and depression. He realized that none of what he thought mattered actually did.
Matt worked to find new meaning and purpose in his life, leading him to write his first book in 2007, Every Monday Matters™ (EMM). That book became the inspiration for founding a non-profit organization with the mission of helping individuals and organizations embrace how much and why they matter.
Today, EMM serves over 3 million people with transformational programming through the Mattering Mindset™ methodology. He has now written four best-selling books and shared his inspirational story through over 350 keynotes in front of hundreds of thousands of people.
Matt is on a mission to help individuals and organizations embrace how much and why they matter. And, he believes that mattering is at the intersection of human and business needs.

Company culture is built upon experiences and transformed through meaningful engagement. It takes time to gain commitment and participation. It is essential to the health and success of any company, yet in today's ever-changing, remote and hybrid work environments, culture creating and maintaining is more challenging than ever.
These conflicting trends are where the tension lies, but also the opportunity. As employees push for more remote and hybrid work, the paradigm for culture needs to change.
For too long, company culture has been viewed as the responsibility of leadership. Now culture is as much bottom-up as it is top-down. It requires accountability by everyone to build a space where people don’t want to quit, but instead grow, thrive, and celebrate.
