Paul Spiers, Principles & Leadership

Paul Spiers is the founder of the New P&L Institute, on a mission to change business for the better with a focus on principles and leadership. Paul tells us how his mission was forged in the crucible of personal experience. And about the continuous thread of his career that he can follow right back to winning an encyclopaedia aged just 7.

Paul talks about his keynote and moderation experience, why he is “More Lada than Prada”, and about the worst review he ever got for a talk: “word vomit.” Harsh! But a valuable lesson.

Paul also shares his tips for other speakers (“Don’t be a dick!”) and for event organisers looking to get the best out of speakers.
