Matt Holland

Technologist for Social Change -- for hire

Activist. Technologist. Leader.

I’ve been building Internet technology and using it to advance social change for more than twenty years.

I like to understand complex problems and then build teams and systems to solve them. Mobilizing people to change the world is the most important fun I know.

I take on specific projects, mentoring relationships, and part-time or interim leadership positions.

Is there some way I can help you?

Problems I can solve

  • You face strategic technology decisions that you don't feel qualified to make
  • You have projects that just never seem to get finished
  • You've decided to build an in-house technology team, but you don't know where to start
  • Your issue campaign needs to launch a new technology, fast
  • Your tech staff give you explanations you don’t understand
  • You don't know why you lag behind other groups at reaching supporters online

Things I can do

  • Hire and lead developers, designers, and other techies
  • Show how to use technology to further your social change mission
  • Design and run message campaigns using email, phonebanks, or field canvassers
  • Create your strategic technology plan
  • Train teams to work together
  • Choose the best tools for your project
