Paul is one of the leading practitioners in the family business space. He knows all the key actors, and has been bringing the family business community together for many years in an exceptional way.

Sian Steele
Family Business United is an essential part of the family business eco-system in the UK. The team work tirelessly to promote the sector and to share stories, best practice and connections. Personally, I have been enormously grateful for Paul’s support, wise advice and enormously good natured approach. Many of the businesses that I work with have gained huge value from the wide range of sessions that Paul and the team run across the UK. The regional approach, right to the far flung reaches of the UK is very well received and has in many areas created a much needed sense of community and opened up communication channels at what is a very challenging time for any business but, particularly, family businesses.

Greg McCann
I have known and worked with Paul over the last 15 years and commend him as a true champion in our field. He has worked tirelessly to bring resources, speakers and connections to family businesses in England and throughout the world. He is as generous as he is committed to our field and a true pleasure to work with.

Steve Legler
I've only met Paul in person once, but I keep running into him online at every turn. He is the epitome of a champion of the #FamBiz world, and if there were more people like Paul in this space it would be even better. This field of #FamBiz and those who inhabit it could use more people like Paul, who live and breathe this world. He also has a very high 'give a sh*t' factor which I always admire in people.
