RICHARD STEIN, PRESIDENT & CEO, ARTS ORANGE COUNTY
“To Paul, every problem has a solution, and his track record proves he can tackle the most difficult challenges leaders face in business, politics, community development—even war zones. I’ve seen him do it time and again in the 30 years I’ve known him as a colleague and friend.”
ELIZABETH SEGERSTROM, CO-MANAGING PARTNER, SOUTH COAST PLAZA PARTNERS
“For many years Paul worked closely with my late husband, Henry T. Segerstrom, and later with me, providing counsel on business and public affairs. Paul helped guide us through major transitions. He is a truly unique talent."
TOM HOOG

DIANE PRITCHETT
EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR, SOUTH COAST METRO ALLIANCE
“I’ve known Paul since 1994, when he was on the board of the Alliance, leading firms in Santa Ana and Costa Mesa, California. His observations are always insightful, and his predictions amazingly accurate. Paul is one of our most popular presenters.”
PATRICK FN'PIERE
INTERNATIONAL AFFAIRS ADVISOR
“Paul is an incisive thinker extremely adept at verbal and written communication. His counsel on strategy and private/public management reflects visionary freshness yet has 'real world' relevance. Paul has great energy with an eye for details and deadlines. I highly recommend him.
ELIZABETH PEARSON
PRESIDENT & CEO, PACIFIC CHORALE
“I've known Paul in three capacities: he was Mayor in Laguna Beach; a Segerstrom/South Coast Plaza executive; and a partner with my firm, ADworx, working for a private energy client. He’s one of the smartest men I know; he pulls big rabbits out of little hats. I highly recommend him.”
