Paul joined us on May 28th 2020 and delivered his session How to cope in a crisis more details here: https://www.performingartistes.co.uk/podcast-post/14

Paul provides insights, inspiration and practical tools you can use instantly on the following topics:

• Inspiring Leadership
• How to Survive and Thrive in Changing Times
• How to Communicate with Influence and Impact
• Who Cares Wins – Making A Difference to Customers

It hit the right note perfectly as a follow on from the activities earlier that day and provided terrific motivation for the ideas session the next day.  I was particularly impressed at the impact on a couple of our hitherto more negative colleagues (mood hoovers to use your language) and their managers have commented on a noticeable change in attitude!  It’s up to us (and them) to keep it up now.All in all a great session and the perfect mix of humour and substance.
