Matt Roberts possesses expertise in energy efficiency, energy management, fuel cells, renewable energy, strategic communications and 30 more skills. Colleagues describe him as "Matt was a good leader and a great boss. What stood out to me most was how he conducted himself with an admirable degree of equanimity, even in the face of the daily demands of a fast-growing, membership-driven organization and the huge stakes of a 1-2K person annual conference. That equanimity is the foundation of Matt's ability to build trust quickly, develop strong working relationships, defuse high-pressure situations, and manage conflict effectively. As a leader, he developed a clear strategy and rationale for our organizational growth; as a result, I always felt I understood where we were going, which gave me greater confidence in my own program direction. As a boss, he made me feel respected by delegating authority readily when I demonstrated the requisite capability, and he gained my confidence by backing me up when I made decisions that left some stakeholders unhappy. He was always solution-oriented whenever I brought to his attention any challenges or problems stemming from my decisions. And when the organization had successes, he shared credit where due. I would gladly work again under his management, and I expect that any early-stage organization that brings him in will benefit from his leadership and judgment." and "Matt is not just one of the most effective and transformative public affairs executives I have ever worked with, but he is also one of those rare people who can rapidly develop a powerful understanding of complex systems, and to then make them understandable to a broader audience. You need to talk to him, and you'll enjoy doing so."
