A Guide
Hi. I'm Paul.
Your situation, your context, business, and your people...are unlike any other. Know that, while these pages can give our conversation a good starting point, breakthrough can’t be prescribed like this. I take it seriously that you’d consider giving me the opportunity and the privilege to walk alongside you. When we decide to work together, the approach may feel (hopefully) like a craftsman friend you’ve commissioned to create art...and the results flow from that approach...genuine, thoughtfully designed...handmade.
My life's call is to help others engage with their world in a compelling way....to move toward their future with a clearer sense of who they are, where they are going and how to get there. For organizations...to see the impact and results they can't now imagine. For people...to live the life they were meant to live.
You may have read or heard the phrase “Never trust a leader who doesn’t walk with a limp.” After investing 14 years of my life in South America, building and leading non-profit projects, while starting a family, we landed back in the US. Working in a cross-cultural, multi-lingual and socio-economically diverse environment drew upon and grew my strengths as a team leader, strategic visionary, problem-solver and transformational guide. A journey filled with adversity; experiences that have left their mark on me, forging deep convictions about life and leadership.
I love systems, but I’m about people. In the landscape of big data and analytics (which I appreciate), we are offered insights that we have never had before. We must leverage this insight, but I just don’t think there is a substitute for a guide, for life-on-life engagement, the encouraging effect of a non-anxious presence, and the power of a piercing question that cuts through the fog.
What drives me?
LifeCORE

Because I want my life's story to be a rich, page-turning adventure.
Big Perspective
Because when I lose perspective I lose my way.
Resonant Authenticity
Because it isn't good for man to be alone.
Compelling Initiative.
Because I come alive when possibilities are realized and the world is bettered.
