Paul Lemberg started his first business with a partner and $3,000 of credit card debt. Building the company to 92 people and sales on four continents, they sold it three years later for millions.

He used some of the cash to start a second company, and ultimately sold that business to large German Bank. After working as a corporate and market strategist for Fortune 100 technology companies, Paul found his passion and talent was helping other entrepreneurs become super-successful, and in 1992 coined the term business coaching to describe his work.

Internationally recognized as a business coach, advisor, author and speaker, Paul’s newest book from McGraw Hill is Be Unreasonable. He named it that because that’s what his private clients say he is as he helps them see unnecessary limits they place upon themselves, and encourages, cajoles, and sometimes flat-out beats them over the head to take bold, uncomfortable and – yes – unreasonable actions to reach their goals.

Paul currently works with clients on 3 continents and 6 time zones. 50% year over year client growth is typical, and doubling sales and profits is almost common. Paul has worked with giant companies like Cisco, Accenture, Adobe, Goldman Sachs, IBM and Telstra, as well as hundreds of businesses whose names you’ll never know, but whose entrepreneurial business owners have pocketed more than $300 million in increased profits and proceeds from sales. Thousands more have used Paul’s business acceleration programs including the wildly successful business-building system, FormulaFIVE.

Paul’s newest program is Business Profits Blueprint, distilling 17 years of business coaching into a guaranteed success program. The tag line? “The system is brilliant, so you don’t have to be.”

Paul is an superb communicator. He has appeared on Good Morning America and on CNN, as well as dozens of radio programs. Be Unreasonable (McGraw-Hill, 2007) reached number 3 on Amazon.com's business list. He has authored two previous books: Faster Than the Speed of Change (Akiba Press, 2000) and the Earn Twice As Much With Half the Stress (Morgan James, 2005), as well as dozens of articles, which have appeared in Bottom Line Personal, Training Magazine, and Info World, among other places. His newsletters are read by over 30,000 leaders worldwide.

He is also a member of American MENSA.
