He believes that communications should be based on strategic market research and understanding your audience, so you can speak to where the conversation is already happening. Foundational to his approach is building strong and meaningful relationships.Most recently Matthew has started a communications firm called Oppportunity Knocks Communications, based out of Calgary. He has expanded his expertise beyond oil and gas to include working with pharmaceutcal companies and tech start ups. When not working with clients, Matthew can be found taking care of his two boys and aussiedoodle or trying to recreate whatever meal his wife has recently seen online.
Attitudes towards the oil & gas sector are changing rapidly. With increasing scrutiny, new regulations, and a worker shortage, operators are faced with the task of not only maintaining trust internally, but externally too. Knowing how to keep your workforce, stakeholders, and the public on board as you navigate change will be crucial in ensuring your success.
