Oh, hello there, we’re MatterBetter.

Burnout shouldn't be a corporate rite of passage. It’s an operational design flaw… and it’s time we eliminated it.

When an organization doesn't have an established, workflow with clearly assigned responsibilities, onboarding will always become a last-minute scramble.

Working from home should not be treated like a perk, it's an operating model. And these are two very different things.

Information is easy to find, but knowing who to trust is a way bigger challenge.

Having that breadth of people in the same workplace isn't going to be easy and we should stop pretending it will be.

I know, it sounds like a silly question, but seriously. Are you actually comfortable completely disconnecting from work? Or do you remain somewhat "available" to potential fires, answering Slack messages from a beach chair while pretending you’re relaxing?

I see this is a bit of a social trend right now. Young people sharing videos about how the thought of spending decades working a traditional 9-to-5 is really ruining their 5-9.

I’m a fractional executive. Sounds fancy, right? When people ask me what that actually means, I usually pause, because the answer depends entirely on who is asking.

Do they micromanage and send emails at 11:43 PM? Schedule meetings that could have been a Slack message? Ask for your thoughts and then ignore them completely? I've met that boss. Truthfully, I've probably been that boss. 

I think perhaps the divide between generations is most visible between Boomers and Gen Z, and I think it’s important to understand why.

You were the generation who learned the world as we know it can stop overnight.

You inherited a world of permanent stimulation, endless information and always-on work. While very convenient, it's also kind of crappy.

You seem to have pivoted to a career lattice and now you're building a life that says 'screw the corporate ladder'.

I'm not talking about in the 'birds and the bees' sense. More like, why do we work at all? Spoiler alert, it's because of the farmer.

I was looking for a full-time job before starting MatterBetter and it was a pretty demoralizing process.

Since this isn't a problem we can figure out overnight, I should explain why you should listen to me all.

You've inherited a dumpster fire of a work world where we're all still pretending the systems make sense. Let's chat about it.
