In this episode of Making More, Billy sits down with Joey Bates, a Marine Corps veteran, lifelong learner, and Director of Global Communications at Matrix Design Group, to talk about what it really means to lead with courage and conviction.
From his early days in the military to his current role guiding global teams across four continents, Joey shares how discipline, empathy, and education have shaped his leadership journey. The two dive deep into AI-driven workplace safety, hands-on leadership, and the power of persistence in a rapidly changing world.
You’ll hear Joey’s story of transformation, from serving his country to safeguarding the world’s most dangerous industries, and how he’s helping others “make more” of their lives through mentorship, accountability, and vision.
Whether you’re a veteran, executive, or simply someone looking to grow as a leader, this is one conversation you won’t want to miss.
