What happens when the CEO of a company has a personal awakening? Turns out, the answer is a whole lot of good business. D(g)B is thrilled to welcome Matt Tinney to the show. Matt is the Founder & Chairman of WME, a Microsoft solutions partner, and on Labor Day 2020, Matt became incredibly ill. A month later when he started coming out of it, everything changed - including his company. Matt did what few Founders would do, and he stepped down as CEO, promoting his then EVP Vickie Moore to CEO, and assuming the role of founder & chairman. He also made WME a culture first organization, wrote an ethics clause into their contract, and implemented 401K matching. What’s the business result? You probably already have a hunch! People can get a paycheck anywhere, but not every company genuinely cares about the employees at a human level. This was one of the most vulnerable conversations we’ve had, and Matt is truly an inspiring leader.
