Delighted clients who have experienced Paul’s consultancy and coaching services have provided the following comments:

I worked closely with Paul over some years on our programme of customer and citizen research. We not only got robust and accurate data, but Paul provided us with far more – he provided incalculable added value in terms of piercing insight, constructive challenge and creative thinking about the issues we faced.  What’s more he communicated brilliantly to both the politicians and senior managers in the organisation, stimulating debate and encouraging positive use of the findings to help us in building a better Bromley. And it was a pleasure to work with him too! (Sheila Bennett, Assistant Director, Democratic and Customer Services, London Borough of Bromley)

Wanted to thank the team and more particularly you for the outstanding work that you did for us in relation to conducting the Queanbeyan City Council’s Community Satisfaction Survey. You broadened our minds and expectations and helped us engage more fully with our community. It was a pleasure working with you and your high standards of professionalism (Marg Nicholls, Queanbeyan City Council)

Paul’s work with local people and community groups in East Lothian, Scotland, helped to give them a voice in shaping local services and focused the local council on delivering services that mattered most to its local residents (Rob Tinlin, Chief Executive at Southend Council, formerly at East Lothian Council)

Paul is a passionate speaker, big picture thinker, and tireless networker. He has an engaging commitment to understand the way businesses, communities and individuals act and to find ways of moving towards more productive, profitable and prosocial behaviours (Euan Robertson, Tourism & Transport Forum, Australia)

There is nothing that compares to listening to someone that has actually been in the trenches and applied the same strategies that they refer to. Paul is an enthusiastic practitioner, strategist, speaker, coach and leader. He shares many practical examples of how the combination of good preparation, genuine engagement and strategic thinking positively impact on the deployment and execution of plans. He outlines how you can achieve a balance of team and personal success in your planning. Paul demonstrates how the journey can be equally or possibly even more rewarding than the destination. An inspiring individual (Greg Doyle, Public Servant and Convenor of the 2007 LGMA LiveWire Conference)

Paul’s inherent curiosity for uncovering the best solutions for his clients, coupled with his positive attitude make Paul a highly engaging and motivating consultant (Courtney Sullivan, Senior Manager, Nielsen)

Paul has one of the most unique perspectives and experience sets in Australia – he’s worked in both social and commercial marketing, has an incredibly diverse knowledge covering numerous areas, is both a consultant and a coach, has international and local experience and is able to draw enthusiasm and insight from those he works with. Paul is a rare breed (Huw Hepworth, Account Director, Painted Dog)
