Paul speaks on relevant topics for today based on his personal experiences. He has been in management since he was 22 years old in Australia and came to New Zealand over 10 years ago where he held the Chief Executive role at Omegatrend before taking up the role of CEO at Bartercard New Zealand in June 2007. Paul uses his many years of personal experience as a leader to bring a very passionate message to his audience.

After hearing him speak you can see he believes in his messages and that his information can help corporate New Zealand at all levels of management. Growing up on a farm near a small country town in Australia, most would say Paul had no chance at success, but given his first chance at management in 1988 he implemented a ‘Servant Leadership’ style of management and the results started to show. He has continued to use this same leadership style as CEO of a large direct selling company and now with Bartercard. Paul’s style is confident, hard hitting and humorous as he uses personal stories to communicate his message. He is a speaker who can captivate an audience and takes them on a journey of discovery where they will laugh, possibly cry and most definitely enjoy listening to him. Speaking to corporate leaders or future leaders still in school or university Paul sees his message as relevant for any potential or current leaders to hear.

Paul is currently based in the USA.
