About
Hi, I’m Matt Cross. Are you looking to make a change?

I’m the author of Subtle Shifts: Simple Strategies for Sustainable Success, and I work with ambitious, conscious, and courageous leaders who want to make a difference in the world.
For decades I helped Fortune 500, Inc. 500 and Government organizations grow by leading big, bold, enterprise-wide change initiatives. Now I take a more human centered approach, helping individuals and organizations grow by focusing on what really matters—subtle but powerful adjustments that lead to significant and sustainable success. If you’re tired of quick fixes and giant leaps that don’t last, you’re in the right place. My approach is grounded, practical, and proven to create lasting change while reducing all of the overwhelm.
My mission is to build a community of exceptional leaders committed to growing personally and professionally and helping others do the same.
