“We brought in Matt to present on the morning of our last day, hoping he would energize what can be a somewhat sleepy crowd. Well, he more than exceeded our expectations. Along with bringing a great stage energy and presence, his powerful story and message hit home with our audience. The buzz for the rest of the day was about his presentation. My only regret is that we didn’t have him open our event to start the week with all that hype. The CEO of our company was so blown away that we’re planning to hire him to train our home office. I would recommend him to anyone without hesitation!”
Tim Askin, Director of Marketing for GWN Securities, Inc.
“Thank YOU! We received very positive feedback on your presentation! You were engaging, articulate and provided actionable steps for our attendees to take to become a transformational leader. Your message was spot on and exactly what we needed to finish our conference on a high note. I’ve worked with many speakers throughout my career and you and your team were delightful!”

“Matt delivered the keynote at our recent all-employee team building event. His story, message, and delivery was outstanding. We will be referencing Matt’s themes repeatedly in the future. The Direct Team has had nothing but good things to say. Matt’s motivational call for all leaders to create a culture where everyone can grow personally and become the best version of themselves is compelling. His message is delivered in such an inspirational and insightful way. For anyone interested in transforming their team, their organization, and indeed themselves, I highly recommend Matt’s guidance.”
Joe Walsh, President & CEO Direct Federal Credit Union
