MATT STAFFORD

Matt Stafford is an attention-grabbing communicator with a unique understanding of the way technology is reshaping the world. He’s a former television anchorman for ABC and NBC stations in the Rocky Mountain region. He has even performed a little weather forecasting when the station MATT STAFFORD was in a pinch (sorry, Wyoming!). Now, currently a consultant at the Edmond, OK firm Future Point of View, Matt specializes in helping organizations craft relationships with the right balance of human touch and digital tools at each stage of the experience. His ability to perform deep research and communicate difficult topics makes Matt a sought-after speaker and consultant for topics such as digital marketing, cybersecurity, technology governance, and adjusting cultural traits to allow technology to flourish. Matt built an early following in the Rocky Mountains, covering news across Colorado and leading Wyoming’s primary ABC affiliate as its News Director. Through his reporting, Matt has developed specializations in military and veterans’ issues, politics, and technology. His reporting résumé includes covering the President of the United States on two occasions; interviewing a future Speaker of the House, an Army Chief of Staff, a former Secretary of Defense, dozens of congressional delegates, and three governors. Matt cherishes the opportunity he received to fly with WWII veterans on a restored B-17 Flying Fortress and cover Medal of Honor recipients. He has interviewed celebrities like Jay Leno and Gary Sinise, been taken behind the blast doors at NORAD, covered murder trials, and reported live during natural disasters like wildfires, tornadoes, snow storms, and floods. He’s done all of this with an eye for different types of content that can be created and ways of using it to build audiences. As a journalist, Matt anchored and reported on live broadcasts daily, including emergency situations like the Waldo Canyon Fire as it destroyed homes in the foothills of Colorado Springs in 2012. Matt leans heavily on his experience as a broadcaster to build digital strategies for clients at FPOV. His perspective on audience development, content creation, and digital relationships helps organizations mature their outreach efforts in the digital age.
