Book Matthew Bidwell to speak

Conventional advice says to keep moving: switch jobs, chase the next opportunity, never stay too long. Decades of research suggest some of our biggest career advantages come from doing the opposite. Audiences learn how to think strategically about their employment choices, when to stay and when to leave, and how to build the relationships that make success compound.

We’ve heard that the future of work is flexible: hire the skills you need when you need them. Matthew argues the opposite. The companies that get ahead will invest in people for the long term, building the relationships, trust, culture, and knowledge that sustain success. Practical strategies cover onboarding, shorter learning curves, developing internal talent, and succession planning as a development tool.
