The power of this approach is evident in his own entrepreneurial endeavors. Through harnessing his own strengths and the strengths of his team, Paul has founded and inspired companies that continue to have lasting impact.

Social Humanitarian

Paul is a vocal advocate for investing in people. Every person everywhere deserves a chance to soar with their strengths. Leaders in government, business, education, non-profits and the faith community can choose to invest in every person. Corporations can begin to value people above profits and GDP growth. We face a technologically advanced future that threatens to replace human jobs with robots and AI. Paul hopes to inspire leaders with new tools and ideas to move forward towards a more inclusive economic system where more people can thrive.

Paul hopes to bring the strengths message to all 50 states and to 50 countries by 2025.
