Training & Development

★★★★★"Paul came to speak at our staff retreat at the end of October and did a wonderful job! I have also heard him speak at Blount County Chamber workshops. He is well-spoken and engaging and was accommodating to our tight timeline. The LEGO workshop is thought-provoking and really helped kickstart some great brainstorming within our team on how to think outside the box and to consider ways we can work toward more adaptability and innovation. Recommend!"

★★★★★"Our team had an incredible experience with Paul Boyles during our LEGO Serious Play session. Paul's energy, insight, and creativity made the activity both fun and meaningful. It was a great way to connect as a team, spark new ideas, and reflect on our core values. Highly recommend!"

★★★★★"I attended the Power of Positive Leadership Workshop with Paul Boyle at the University of Tennessee in September 2025. The workshop brought a lot of insight on how we can turn negative leadership into a positive! Paul taught the class with ease and was engaging! I would recommend attending one of his workshops in the future if you are looking to make a difference in your leadership style."

★★★★★"Paul recently facilitated a LEGO Serious Play workshop for TPMA, TN's premier organization of public sector HR professionals. As a program organizer, I felt Paul was a delight to work with, even when I needed to make changes to accommodate unforeseen situations. He was professional, responsive, reliable, and flexible in the best of ways. Every attendee had a blast and was completely enthralled the entire time. The workshop was well-paced and stayed on track. Everyone was engaged and walked away with thoughts for forward movement."

★★★★★"We booked Paul as a guest speaker for a human resource meeting. He was very easy and pleasant to work with. His presentation topic "What are you doing here and why are you doing it?" drew in quite the crowd and they loved his interactive strategy. He even effortlessly navigated some technical difficulties on our part, which says a lot about his public speaking abilities. Definitely recommend him if you're looking to engage your audience and break up the monotony of traditional workforce-related topics."

★★★★★"I have been meeting with Paul as my leadership coach over the past several months! Paul's coaching has helped me increase innovation, identify my blindspots, overcome challenges, and improve my effectiveness in communication. I strongly recommend Paul as a leadership coach and thought partner!"

★★★★★"I had the wonderful experience of sitting in on one of Paul's LEGO™ Serious Play workshops this week. It was phenomenal. It exercised my brain in ways that I didn't expect it would. If you had asked me going in if I were a creative person, I would have given you a resounding no, but after walking through some of these exercises, I felt so much more confident in what I am able to do. I'm extremely excited about taking some of the lessons back to my team. Could not recommend Paul enough."

★★★★★"Paul is a wonderful coach. Having moved from having a huge to do list to an organised plan, with priorities and deadlines it feels I have control again! His approach is one of curiosity and calm reflection. I felt able to open up and work on my inner critic being a bit too loud. Underselling myself in what I had considered inconsequential and basic things I had done, actually were of huge positive consequence to others once Paul held up the metaphorical mirror to me. I feel positive and have a plan for myself, my team and the organisation."

★★★★★"Up and coming leaders, current leaders, business professionals, entrepreneurs...this is for you! Paul's coaching has made a huge impact on my career and the way I think about and execute my goals. I couldn't speak higher of Paul or his services. Call Paul and get to work on the future you want instead of the future that someone else gives you. You can thank me later!"

★★★★★"Paul spoke to our small organization of meeting planners, hoteliers, and host venues and he was EXCELLENT!! Relatable and educational content, professional and fun presentation, and all in attendance loved his 'vibe'!!! Book this guy! Book him today!!!"

★★★★★"I had the pleasure of working with Paul when he first came to East Tennessee. He worked tirelessly to make sure that the employees at Yale were taken care of during their unfortunate closure. I can always call him for Human Resources advice on any situations I may run up against. I would always refer them to speak with Paul due to his experience and genuine care for people."

★★★★★"Paul does things right. He is ethical, respectable, and highly engaged. Paul goes above and beyond to be an influential HR leader in his area. He knows what it takes to be a thriving leader. The best recommendation I can give is that I would hire him in a second. A second!"

★★★★★"I must say his leadership skills are outstanding! He took our group which was ready to fold and made it into a vibrant organization that is adding value to the members and the member companies. If you need or want a great leader on your team, look no further than Paul."

★★★★★"I've been a part of LMHRA and witnessed Paul lead the professional association like no one has in the past. He has revitalized the group with meaningful speakers and topics that have increased attendance and provided valuable information for us as members. He is a true professional."

★★★★★"Paul is a knowledgeable, experienced and level-headed human resources professional. He takes a fact-based and measured approach, and is a pleasure to work with."

★★★★★"Whether working with him on job fairs, or HR related continuing education efforts, Paul carries himself as an insightful, caring HR professional. He's been a pivotal point-person in growing membership in the Loudon-Monroe HR Association. I wouldn't hesitate to ask for his advice regarding any HR or leadership development effort."
