You Matter, We Matter: Building Bridges in Leadership with Matthew Emerzian
Matthew Emerzian is the founder and CEO of Every Monday Matters, a keynote speaker and best-selling author who is here to share his transformative journey from the brink of despair to becoming a beacon of hope and leadership. Matthew explains the essence of mattering—not just in the personal sense but extending it to those around us and collectively in the communities we serve. Through his and Alex’s conversation, we uncover the powerful truth that leadership extends beyond mere achievements; it's about cultivating compassion, fostering a sense of belonging, and driving change by recognizing the inherent value in everyone. This episode invites you on a reflective journey to explore how embracing vulnerability, gratitude, and service can redefine your understanding of success and leadership in today’s world.
