Leaders in the Limelight: Matt Peters

My name: Matt Peters

My company: Visa

My title: Director, Talent Development

My location: Foster City, California

Best business advice I ever received: “People don’tremember what you say. People remember how you make them feel.”

Most daring personal career move: I switched fromtechnical services to corporate learning. This required me to take a pay cutand learn an entirely new set of skills. It has paid off in so many ways. Ilove what I do and who I’m doing it for.  

What I’m most proud of: Personally: my family.Professionally: successfully creating and executing a model for self-sustaining,SME-driven, senior technical faculty.  

Current workplace challenge: Integratinglearning into the work stream; removing the choice between attending learningor getting the job done.
