Dr. Matthew Dunn
I'm an organizational psychologist who helps organizations remember they're made of humans.
For twenty years, I asked the wrong question: "How do we create environments where people thrive?" Now I ask: "What are your symptoms trying to tell you?"
After two decades in boardrooms, factory floors, and locker rooms, I've discovered something that changes everything: that 70% burnout rate isn't failure—it's intelligence. The talent exodus, especially the sensitive ones who keep leaving. The meetings where no one can breathe. The initiatives that fail regardless of who leads them. They're all trying to tell you something essential about what happens when humans forget they're human.
My work now lives in the space between what organizations think they need (another framework) and what they're actually seeking (permission to feel what they already know). Through Strategic Witnessing sessions, I create space where teams can feel the patterns their bodies recognize but their meetings never name.
Yes, I have the credentials—PsyD in Organizational Leadership Psychology, a slew of certifications, a decade of collegiate coaching. Yes, I used to create frameworks and methodologies. But what I actually do now is simpler: I help organizations feel the difference between forced alignment and natural coherence, between mechanical motion and human rhythm, between what needs to end and what wants to be begin.
I don't fix organizations. I listen for what they're trying to become. Because when we stop treating symptoms as problems and start recognizing them as intelligence, everything shifts. Not through a new model, but through remembering something ancient: humans who can breathe, rest, and release naturally create what no amount of strategic planning can manufacture.
If you're tired of solutions that solve nothing, if your body knows something your spreadsheets can't capture, if you're ready to stop pretending everything's fine when everyone knows it isn't—let's talk.
We are not here to fix. We are here to feel.
