Submit the form below to get The Executive Coaching Evaluation Guide and learn a systematic approach for identifying coaches who can solve your leadership challenges.
Inside this guide, you'll discover:
The preparation framework that ensures organizational readiness and maximizes coaching success
Essential qualifications to verify when evaluating potential coaches (beyond just certifications)
Red flags that signal ineffective coaching approaches so you can avoid expensive mistakes

Confidentiality frameworks that address HR oversight concerns while maintaining coaching integrity
You'll have confidence in your coaching decisions and peace of mind knowing you've found someone who truly cares about developing your leaders while supporting their teams.
Leading people is different from the technical work that got you promoted. You might be feeling uncertain about team dynamics, overwhelmed by competing priorities, or simply wondering if there's a better way to handle the human side of leadership.
You want practical help that actually works. You need someone who understands your real challenges and won't give you generic advice that doesn't fit your situation.
You don't have to figure this out alone. I'm here to help.
I'm Matthew Stublefield, and I've spent 20+ years leading teams across technology, healthcare, education, and manufacturing. I've guided teams ranging from 2 to 400 people through complex challenges, organizational changes, and leadership transitions.
I have a Master's in Project Management with conflict resolution training, plus certification as a Grief Counselor Professional—which means I can handle the sensitive human dynamics that often derail executive development.
Most importantly, I use systematic frameworks rather than just sharing war stories. When your executives need practical skills they can apply immediately, I have proven approaches that work across different industries and organizational contexts.
Matthew leads with empathy, kindness, and a calm, consistent presence. He balances high standards with a genuine commitment to work-life balance, and he offered thoughtful guidance not just on my work, but on my career and life more broadly. He is a wealth of technical and organizational knowledge. He also navigates challenges and conflicts with respect and clarity. As a product leader or coach, Matthew is the kind of person who leaves a lasting, positive impact on every team he joins."
What sets Matthew apart is his Mr. Rogers-like demeanor. His ability to foster collaboration and create an atmosphere of trust and respect made even the most difficult tasks manageable and, dare I say, enjoyable.
Matthew is the kind of professional you want on your team when stakes are high and the path forward is uncertain. His technical and strategic excellence is matched only by his character, and I cannot recommend him highly enough.
I met Matthew when I was applying for an Internship in the United States. I just came from the Netherlands and I was desperately searching for an internship in the United States.
He helped me with improving my documents, scheduling, planning but also improving my English and grammar. For him it was probably difficult to work with me as a foreign person with different beliefs and a thick accent, but he stayed calm and we both got the best out of each other.
Matthew sees opportunities and solutions that others may not even have thought about.
Practical leadership insights and frameworks from 20+ years of leading teams. No fluff, just actionable guidance delivered to your inbox.
