Dr. Matthew Dunn
I am an organizational psychologist, organizational sports psychologist, and performance coach passionate about helping individuals, teams, and organizations reach their highest potential. With nearly two decades of experience in leadership development, coaching, and athletic performance, I specialize in facilitating the creation of psychologically informed organizations—places where a deep understanding of human behavior, system dynamics, and culture drives sustainable growth and success.
My approach integrates system psychodynamics, dialogic organizational development, and complexity theory, offering leaders and teams the tools to navigate challenges (both seen and unseen), cultivate resilience, and foster a culture of continuous learning. I’ve worked with individuals, teams, and organizations to unlock their potential through tailored coaching programs, leadership training, and high-performance mentality development.
Drawing from my background as an educator, collegiate soccer coach, Doctorate in Organizational Leadership Psychology, and certifications in Lean/Six Sigma, executive coaching, and culture analysis, I bring a unique perspective to transforming organizational cultures. My mission is to empower leaders to build environments that are not just high-performing but also deeply attuned to their people's psychological needs.
Currently, I host the Performance Rising podcast, where I explore the intersection of leadership, performance, and the complexities of human behavior in organizations.
