Speaker Bio

Matt Dixon is a highly-sought keynote speaker and expert covering such topics as sales, business growth, and customer loyalty. He is a best-selling author, consultant, media pundit, and thought-leader who has spoken at many conferences around the world where he gives leaders the skills they need to deal with fast, big changes in society, the workplace, and education.

Matt Dixon is hired to speak at events and conferences where he can give expertise on important global business affairs. He is one of the best sales and customer service experts in the world. He often writes for Harvard Business Review and has written some of the most important business books of the last ten years. He is known for his groundbreaking research. He is a founding partner of DCM Insights, a small consulting firm that helps companies find, keep, and grow their customers using data and research-backed frameworks.

In 2011, Portfolio/Penguin published his first book, The Challenger Sale: Taking Control of the Customer Conversation. It quickly went to the top of the best-seller lists on Amazon and the Wall Street Journal. Since then, 12 different languages have been translated and sold nearly one million copies worldwide. Neil Rackham, who wrote the book SPIN Selling, says that the Challenger Sale is “the most important change in selling in a long time” and “the start of a wave that will take over a lot of selling organizations in the next ten years.” (Biz Insider).

Portfolio/2013 Penguin’s book The Effortless Experience: Conquering the New Battleground for Customer Loyalty introduced businesses worldwide to the idea of reducing customer effort and the Customer Effort Score. He also wrote The Challenger Customer: Selling to the Hidden Influencer Who Can Multiply Your Results, which was published by Portfolio/Penguin in 2015 and is known as the acclaimed follow-up to The Challenger Sale. Penguin will release his latest book, The JOLT Effect: How High Performers Overcome Customer Indecision, in September 2022.

Matt challenges the way people talk about leadership by giving talks that are full of counterintuitive ideas and told in the form of stories. This keeps his audiences chasing their tails and debating long-held beliefs, which is rare in a world where motivational speakers mostly tell personal stories and reinforce conventional wisdom.

Matt’s writing has been published in the print and online versions of Harvard Business Review more than twenty times. “Dismantling the Sales Machine” (November 2013) and “The End of Solution Sales” are two of his well-known HBR pieces that are on HBR’s list of the 10 Must-Reads on Sales (July-August 2012).

He has also written some of the most popular HBR articles on customer service and experience, such as “Reinventing Customer Service” (November-December 2018) and “Kick-Ass Customer Service” (January-February 2017), and “Stop Trying to Delight Your Customers” (July-August 2010).

In addition to researching and writing, Matt has also worked in the field. He has worked as a senior leader in strategy, new product development, product management, research, and innovation for companies like Tether, Korn Ferry Hay Group, and CEB (now Gartner).

He has talked about his findings at many industry conferences and in front of hundreds of senior executive teams worldwide, including those of several Fortune 500 companies. This has made him a sought-after speaker and advisor to management teams worldwide.

Matt got his Ph.D. from the Graduate School of Public and International Affairs at the University of Pittsburgh. He also has a B.A. in International Studies from Mount Saint Mary’s College in Emmitsburg, Maryland. He presently lives in the Washington, D.C., area with his wife and four kids.
