There are a lot of buzz words out there when it comes to personal growth and branding, but authentic is at Paul's core. In fact if you listen to him, his passion and his story- you will see that being his authentic self is what brought Paul to public speaking. I've worked with a lot of speakers over the years and as I listen to Paul I realize he has so much to teach me not only about the art of delivering a message, but being a damn good human. If you have the opportunity to work with him, do not let the opportunity pass you by. He will have your audience in tears one minute and standing strong the next.

Paul was our keynote speaker for our luncheon meeting for the Apartment Association of Kansas City this past July. What an inspiration. He was so engaging with our audience and made everyone feel so at home with his talk. Had you laughing, in tears and leaving with a different outlook on life. I have been working in the apartment industry for over 30 years and have to say, Paul is one of the top speakers we've had. Would highly recommend him for your company or association.

He has truly changed the way I look at life and has taught me to face my challenges head on, focusing on the fun and energetic ways to accomplish my goals.

Paul Long is a beacon of positive energy and enthusiasm. I have had the privilege of sitting in a classroom with Paul as my facilitator. He not only inspired me to work hard and climb to the next level during my career at Farmers, but was also the driving force and primary reason I strived to be a facilitator. He has fueled my love for lifelong learning, and continues to serve as a career role model for myself and many others. Paul is one of the best public speakers I have had the opportunity to observe, and I would recommend anyone in the corporate world to take advantage of his talents to better production and increase their bottom line.

Paul recently spoke at a technical conference I attended. I was extremely impressed! He wears a smile and has wonderful positive energy. As others have said, he is friendly and genuinely cares about people he connects with. I highly recommend Paul to anyone looking for a motivational speaker!
SRF CONSULTING GROUP

Paul is an inspiration. He lights up a room. He is a true professional and builds an energy like no one I have ever worked with. Many of us have times when we are speaking to a group of people in a business setting and there are one or two people who are being negative about the business or their co-workers. That is hard to work with. Paul has an incredible ability to address concerns and turn them around on the spot. In all of my years in the business I have never met anyone who can do it like he can. He is a motivator, and not the type of motivation that lasts a couple of days. His motivation is long term. At AT&T he has proven results. His sessions have moved numbers. The centers he has visited are performing at sustained higher levels. I would recommend him to any business who wants to improve their employee satisfaction or their customer service.

I have worked with many trainers, facilitators, and consultants, in my career. Paul Long is up there with the best. In addition to being an energetic, and intuitive instructor, he has a keen interest in the people he is teaching, which only increases his level of effectiveness. The thing I appreciate most about Paul, however, is his sheer desire to be better, and his willingness to accept any and all feedback in order to master his craft.

"There are very few people out there like Paul. You know that guy you see always smiling and can go up and talk to anyone in a crowd? That guy that has that contagious laugh and personality that you can't help but like them? The guy that is legitimately interested when asking you a question and actually listens to the answers? That's Paul. Paul is the guy you want on your team and by your side through any business venture. His attitude and optimism cannot be ignored and refuses to give up and takes on challenges with open arms. The guy is a true winner."
