Its nice to work with someone whose love of career makes it difficult to discern if he is working or playing, its infectious!
- Brian Doricko, Chief Revenue Officer Dupont Fabros
It was great to work with Matt while he was at salesforce. He was always willing to jump in, focus on what needed to be done to get the outcomes for our customers/partners/employees, and motivate the team to always improve on what we were doing.
- Tony Owens, EVP Salesforce
Every SVP of Sales demands success. That's a given but it's not what makes a great leader. A great leader understands what that he needs to do more than just deliver a quota. Matt has pushed from day 1 to make sure our team has the support we need from a product, pricing, and operations perspective. He's designed the sales force in such a way that we all know how to play our part in making a positive impact to the company. As sales professionals, we demand results from our leaders too and Matt delivers. If he doesn't for some reason then he owns it. One of the best characteristics of Matt's leadership style is that he welcomes input from his team regardless of role or title. When you have an opportunity to add value personally, even with a company as large as Digital, it's truly meaningful. After working under Matt's leadership I would go into battle with him any where any place.
- Bill Bentley, Sales Director, Digital
Matt was a fantastic resource and contributor to our team as we explored ways to engaging with our Enterprise customers at a new and higher level. He brought a wealth of experience, insight and well thought out action plans on how to really impact our GTM model. I truly enjoyed working with Matt and would welcome the opportuntity at any point in the future!
- Dru Shiner, Chief Sales Officer C2FO
It is a very rare opportunity to work closely with someone who had a significant role in creating over four billion dollars in shareholder value in a short period of 10 quarters. Matt is an exceptional sales leader who injected a sense of purpose into the sales team resulting in raising the level of performance of the sales team to new heights. Under Matt's leadership the sales team produced quarter after quarter of exceptional results. Matt is one of those rare leaders who can see the forest and the trees at the same time.
Matt brought out the best in his team, truly believed in the power of diversity and created a challenging, productive and fun environment.
- Chethan Prabhu, Head of Global Sales Operations Mesosphere
