“The feedback for Leading Change and Thriving Through Change has been overwhelmingly positive and the content is absolutely hitting the mark with all levels of leadership.

Leaders have also been impressed with the facilitation style and use of storytelling for impact.”

“Working with Paul Mills, with his talent, calibre and expertise in leadership development, has created employee experiences with real impact for our people with lasting behaviour change on our culture journey.

The depth and breadth of his knowledge and adaptability brings insight, inspiration and motivation to stay the course with curiosity and conviction through challenging culture transformation.

I would recommend Paul in a heartbeat to anyone who needs a seasoned expert to bring meaningful change to their people through a leading edge approach to shift mindset and attitudes to ensure success. Thank you, Paul!”

““The Movigo Group has invested heavily in its people this year, providing leadership development programs to the management team and then development programs to the future leaders of our business. This has included staff from across Australia, New Zealand, the UK, as well as our leaders in our BPO operation in Manila. This investment has been driven by our CEO James Tonna recognising that investment in our people is the best investment we can make. The feedback I have had from our staff about their training has frankly been astounding. The staff have been effusive in their praise of both the training provided and Paul Mills and it is incredibly rewarding to know that this investment will benefit these staff as they continue their career journeys, and no doubt help to support and drive the extraordinary growth that our Group has achieved and continues to target.””

“I’ve had the pleasure of working with Paul for several years in the area of leadership development and most recently on change leadership, and I am delighted to provide this testimonial. Paul’s expertise and guidance have made a significant impact on our organisation.

Throughout the engagement, Paul demonstrated exceptional knowledge and deep understanding of change management strategies. He skilfully navigated the complexities of our organisation, providing invaluable insights and practical solutions for our senior leaders to effectively lead change initiatives.

Paul’s ability to connect with individuals at all levels was remarkable. His approach was both inclusive and collaborative, ensuring that everyone felt heard and understood. Through his engaging workshops and one-on-one coaching sessions, Paul empowered our leaders to develop their leadership skills, fostering a positive and resilient work culture.

What sets Paul apart is his genuine passion for driving organisational growth and his unwavering commitment to our success. He tailored his approach to our specific needs, seamlessly blending theory with real-world examples and went over and beyond to make the engagement a true success. Paul’s enthusiasm was infectious, inspiring our leaders to embrace their roles as change agents.

Furthermore, Paul’s communication and presentation skills are truly exceptional. He effectively conveyed complex concepts in a clear and concise manner, leaving a lasting impact on our leaders. His ability to articulate ideas and engage the audience ensured that our learning experiences were not only informative but also enjoyable.

Overall, working with Paul has been a delight. His expertise, empathy, and passion for leadership have made a remarkable difference in our organisation. I wholeheartedly recommend Paul to any organisation seeking to enhance their change leadership capabilities and cultivate effective leaders.”

“Over the last 2 years, Paul has been crucial to developing leadership capability at the
City of Darwin, which has been aligned with our strategic intent and desired organisational culture.

Paul ensures that the programs he delivers are inspiring and deliver maximum constructive impact and value.

Underpinned by a wealth of experience in both the public and private sector, Paul deeply engages with and encourages participants to challenge the way they think, act and behave.

Paul talks straight – he calls poor leadership behaviour and attitudes and works positively with participants to do likewise. Importantly, he works personally with participants to ensure that they are equipped and supported to be better leaders.

Simply put, Paul is an exceptional facilitator, coach and mentor.”

“I have had the benefit of working with Paul for a number of years of now. In my previous role as the General Counsel of a large data and credit reporting business (Veda Group Limited), Paul’s valuable input and executive coaching facilitated my transition to an executive role, helping me navigate through a number of transitions and help build an important and valuable function within our business.

Paul also coached some senior members of my staff helping them transition from subject matter experts to business leaders and trusted advisers. This was invaluable. ”

“Paul was engaged by me at Fairfax Media in New Zealand for over 4 years. During this time, he ran our Senior Leaders program, which saw approximately 200 people participate and all have reported positive feedback about Paul. They have also raved about the benefit they have received from the individual coaching from Paul. He also ran Leadership sessions with our Executive and other management teams in the business which focused on the team and the individual. These sessions have been run to a high level and have been the most value-add sessions that I have seen operate at the Exec level.

More recently, we have engaged Paul at New Zealand Health Group, running the Foundational Leadership Program for 16 senior leaders. The program was a great success, and we are now moving to offer the program to other leaders in the business.

Paul has got a style where he gets to know the organisation and what the key issues are and then can add insight from what is happening in the wider business world. Nothing is ever too much trouble for Paul, and he is a person who is at the top of his field, and a person who I would recommend to any Executive/Management teams wanting to improve their performance.
”

“I initially engaged Paul as an executive coach when making a transition from working in leadership roles in the public sector to establishing my own consultancy practice. Paul’s understanding of the interaction between public and private sector entities and cultures has been immensely valuable.

Most important for me however is the ethically driven approach to business that Paul brings to our executive coaching sessions. I have been both supported and challenged by Paul in the development of my consulting practice and as my business grows so does the depth and sophistication of our professional relationship.”
