Matt and his team at Inflection Point form meaningful partnerships with high-performing executives and their teams. Together, they identify a starting point then co-create a path forward to realize key objectives. The process utilizes Inflection Point’s proprietary A-C-H-I-E-V-E goal setting and goal pursuit framework, a topic Matt shares with audiences in keynote speeches and workshops across the globe.
To complement his training as a certified executive coach, Matt draws upon his operating experience working as a Chief Marketing Officer, Chief Revenue Officer, SVP Strategy & Innovation and Chief People Officer.
