Matthew Greeley 🇺🇸 is a Founder and CEO at Brightidea. He possess expertise in leadership, product marketing, strategic partnerships, social innovation, innovation program management and 25 more skills. Colleagues describe him as "Matt is the CEO that presents you with a hard (at times, seemingly undoable) challenge, inspires you to tackle it in a creative way that will make it epic, then does all he can to support you to make it happen. I have never met a manager so generous with his time, feedback, and collaboration. Because of his guidance, I was able to reach the next level with a number of my projects and teams - going far beyond my own expectations. Those made for some incredibly gratifying experiences that I am still proud of today. There is great authenticity and thus power in Matt's vision for Brightidea and its role in history. Matt believes that the work we do is bigger than him, bigger than the product, and bigger than the company. As a result, I always felt connected to, and grounded by, a broader narrative of which I was a part. In recent years, his vision for the future world of agile work and the role of idea management gave me a clear foundation from which I could build, test, and develop new product concepts. As a manager, while Matt pushed for greatness, he also recognized the hard-won achievements. He was extremely supportive - both modeling and encouraging balance in work and life. His candid communication style created a safe space for me to openly share my thoughts and ideas. If you have the opportunity to work with Matt in your career, I urge you to take it. I truly believe that my 7 years of collaborating with Matt have made me so much better at what I do - not only as a product designer and strategist, but also as a business and company leader, a storyteller, and a thinker. Matt's positive impact on me as a boss, coach, and collaborator has been invaluable, and I am thankful for it." and "I was a client of Brightidea at two large corporations (Nielsen and Cisco) and the support given by Matt during these years was wonderful. He's 100% hands on with the business and is a pleasure to work with. He's always looking ahead at what's on the horizon and is open to brainstorm with clients about future opportunities. I would highly recommend Matt and his company to anyone looking to dive into the world of corporate innovation programs. "
