Matthew Emerzian, CEO and Founder of Every Monday Matters, has spent the last 15 years on a mission to foster a world where everyone understands how much they matter and why. As a bestselling author of four books and a sought-after keynote speaker, Matthew has delivered impactful talks for major companies like Zoom, Google, HP, Outreach, Jack in the Box, Chili’s, Genentech, and Amgen. His work has gained recognition from prominent media outlets including Oprah.com, The Today Show, and Fast Company.

Matthew’s non-profit organization, Every Monday Matters (EMM), has touched millions of lives through its various programs. The EMM K-12 Education Program reaches over 3 million students nationwide, while the EMM Employee Engagement and Culture Program is transforming workplace cultures across companies of all sizes. Additionally, the EMM Senior Living Program helps bring purpose and dignity to seniors, reminding them of their importance. After a successful career in the music industry, where he worked with top artists like U2, Avril Lavigne, and Coldplay, Matthew faced a life-altering panic attack that led him to re-evaluate his priorities. This journey inspired him to create The Mattering Mindset™, a methodology that has since changed the lives of individuals, organizations, and communities by focusing on the core belief that everyone matters.
