About Matt

Matt successfully transitioned from a bench scientist to leading cross-functional, global product development teams during his 28+ year career in the pharmaceutical industry. He often observed that technical professionals required specialized coaching and training to excel as leaders within their organizations to address the “soft-skill” issues that often derailed product development objectives.

Matt formed Transition States Coaching and Training to address these business needs. He employs a unique combination of leadership skills, practical corporate experience and coaching expertise to effectively develop leaders to better meet their business needs and strategic goals.

In addition to being the President of Transition States Coaching & Training, Matt is also proud to be a member of Avvartes Partners, which allows him to serve his global clients with even more speed, agility and scale. Avvartes Partners is a carefully selected global team of Human Capital experts who believe that business breakthroughs start with leaders who deliver the bottom line AND who are people-focused at the same time.

Matt is a co-facilitator of the NC State University Business Coaching certificate program. He is credentialed through the International Coach Federation and has coached technical leaders as an internal coach across the United States, United Kingdom, China, and Latin America. He is a certified Team Coach from the Pyramid Resource Group and Certified Group Coach.

Matt received his B.A. in Chemistry from The College of the Holy Cross and his Ph.D. in Chemistry from Duke University.
