A CEO, not a career speaker
Matt Pearson runs a healthcare company. He isn't a professional speaker who read about your problems on the plane.
He spends his week on the same things your audience does: incentives that backfire, smart people who stop listening, and new tools that don't move the number.
On stage he uses true stories from history and science to make those problems impossible to ignore, then shows what to do about them on Monday. Every story is fact-checked and credited.
