Your Keynote address to 300 of our staff included very practical examples, easy to understand concepts and, most importantly humour. Your energy and enthusiasm never cease to amaze me. Many of the staff still refer to which ‘ponds’ and which ‘doors’ etc. In my view, your address left our staff motivated and engaged to make the ‘small tweaks’” our business needs.

Paul presented ‘Why Should Anyone Be Led By You?’ to 60 leaders in our business. The feedback we received indicated that, not only is Paul a knowledgeable, authentic and passionate presenter, but also that his anecdotes, real-life examples and stories were very much appreciated. Personally, I found Paul to be friendly, energetic, diligent, and highly professional. I won’t hesitate to work with Paul again. AMP
Paul helped add a depth to our MaxAttention Summit that provided our premium customers with an event that was both informative, real and tangibly added value to their ability to lead their teams. Paul’s ability to engage the high profile audience and give them skills and lessons that can be used immediately is uncanny. SAP Australia Pty Ltd
Paul Mitchell recently spoke at a breakfast event entitled “Why Should Anyone Be Led By You?”. The audience was made up of 50 of our clients, mainly Chief Financial Officers and Chief Executives. These events are a core part of our business in terms of our marketing and the promotion of our brand and therefore the calibre of speaker and content were critical. Paul delivered a session that was outstanding; the content was clear and strategic and delivered in a captivating and energetic way. I have known Paul for many years and his insights into leadership coupled with his enthusiasm and compassion are a winning combination. Moir Group
We recently had the pleasure of hosting a “Boardroom Lunch” as a keynote speaker… attended by 25 leading HR professionals and in line with our philosophy of providing “Learning with a Difference”, we asked Paul to create a unique and memorable experience for this senior group. Paul’s presentation was absolutely fabulous. His use of research and theory balanced with his insights and relevant examples struck a chord with the audience. He managed to keep our attention, create real energy in the room, and provide considerable take home value in what was a really tough and limited time frame. The feedback from our guests has been overwhelmingly positive. It was certainly a great outcome for HattonNeale and helped us achieve our own goal of providing value and building trusted partnerships. HattonNeale
