“Working with Paul was really something special. When I first got to work with him our sales department was really starting to grow and show solid progress. We had been refining our processes and making some amazing progress but needed that something special to really take off. Paul was that something special. He had the tools, the knowledge, the experience and the personality to take us from "awesome" to "the best." Paul showed us how to make the most of our planning sessions, how to set goals that would push us to our limits, and how to crush those goals. He saw the progress we had been making and the data we had collected and helped us refine it in ways we had never even considered. All of that being said, the thing that struck me the most was how easy he was to work with and talk to. So often you hear about bosses that are either the strictly-business, numbers focused machines who will hit that bottom line at all costs, or they are more of a buddy than a boss and are fun to be around but hard to respect when things get tough. Somewhere in the middle of that is a truly wonderful person to work for. With Paul we always felt like we could talk to him, that he supported us, that he valued our thoughts and opinions, and that he cared about us. At the same time, there was never a question about whether or not he was the boss. Paul was tough when he needed to be but always in a fair way that let you know he was pushing because he knew you could do better and he wanted to see you achieve your potential. All around, Paul truly is one of the best leaders I've had the pleasure of working with.”
