Matthew Mottola

Matthew possesses a rare ability to combine flexible talent expertise, with startup speed & creativity, all while understanding the unique needs of the enterprise.

Matthew transformed the way we approach hiring. As a nationwide coffee company in the US, he showed us a better way to manage growth by pairing us with talent from all around the world.

Matthew saved us months of trial and error by helping us understand how to structure our program, manage change, increase adoption, and better understand risks.

Human Cloud helps us future proof for however the next decade plus could turn out. The rapidly changing work landscape has been a source of fear for me. It’s tough to know what to prepare for when I don’t know what’s coming. I also made the book a required reading for my team so we can put together a game plan and make sure we thrive in this ever changing game we call work.

Human Cloud provides us with a clear vision of a new workplace, where the gig economy becomes mainstream, almost everybody works alongside a smart machine, and everything is in the cloud.

Matt is exceptional at developing authentic, trust-based relationships.

Your insights and knowledge have been invaluable to our learning!

Now that distributed teams are the new normal it is time to get serious about how remote work changes project delivery risk and team efficiency. The Human Cloud lays out the case for using data analytics and AI to make remote workers more efficient while delivering higher quality — this is the next leap forward.

I’ve been running a marketing services firm for over 20 years using outsourced freelancers, but the Human Cloud has inspired me to do so much more with the talent out there. Freelance is the future to master. And the book — rarely do I read a business book as good as this!
