Dr. Matthew Jones created Cofounder Clarity after identifying the significant impact cofounder strain has on founders.
As an international startup psychologist working with hundreds of founders the last five years, Matt noticed the difference between top-performing teams and everyone else is not an absence of conflict—it is top-performing teams have learned to navigate conflicts more effectively. He is trusted by companies backed by Y Combinator, Sequoia, Andreessen Horowitz, Google Ventures, Tiger Global Management, Techstars, Village Global, and more, to teach founders how to increase teamwork, streamline communication, and improve decision-making.
With two Master’s Degrees and one Doctorate in Clinical Psychology from The Chicago School of Professional Psychology, Matt is a licensed psychologist and creator of the Cofounder Clarity Coaching Method. He specializes in helping individuals live more rewarding and authentic lives by aligning three key components: who you think you are, what you’re not aware of in yourself, and how you present yourself to the world.
His written work has accumulated millions of views online, and appeared in Inc Magazine, The Huffington Post, TIME, Business Insider, Thought Catalogue, The Observer, and more.
Matt is also the author of Slow Down, Wake Up: 150 Short Meditations For A More Present Life.
