“We hired Paul initially in as an interim country leader for our business, planning on 6 months but this lasted almost 3 years such was Paul's positive impact within the business. From the very start Paul was hands on, engaging with all staff, but in a very respectful way that brought the team along for the journey ahead. As this was during the no travel period of the pandemic it was important that we could establish international working relationships remotely and quickly - this was not a problem and helped immediately reassure the business our local operations were in safe hands. I enjoyed Paul's ability to engage with clients, new and old, as well as bring new technology to
market for us. Paul's past experiences across many industries and markets were very obvious and helped find new areas of opportunity for us. When travel became possible, Paul became more involved in international teams and applied his skills in similar ways - a steadying hand, an out-of-the-box thinker and a very personable leader. Paul's entrepreneurial spirit doesn't mean he cannot work within a corporate environment - he negotiated these areas just as well and was a great colleague and leader to have within our business.”
