The healthcare landscape is constantly evolving, marked by relentless change, staffing shortages, and economic uncertainty that often forces teams into a defensive mindset.

The impact? Confidence gaps that lead to reactive decisions and burnout across healthcare organizations. But imagine having a playbook that empowers you to play offense—proactively pursuing meaningful goals and driving breakthrough performance—even amid the most challenging environments.

This is exactly what Paul delivers in his flagship keynote, inspired by 15 years of leading high-performance teams and his bestselling book, The Power of Playing Offense: A Leader’s Playbook for Personal and Team Transformation.

Every healthcare leader and team member will walk away equipped with Paul’s 5-pillar Playing Offense framework and WIN MONDAY playbook, packed with industry-specific insights and actionable strategies to apply in any healthcare setting.

How do some healthcare organizations build deep, lasting trust with patients while others struggle with retention and engagement?

Paul led his teams to sell out billion-dollar stadiums in historically losing markets and transformed an NBA team’s revenue from 28th to 2nd in the league—not by selling a product, but by understanding the story behind every seat.

In healthcare, every patient has a story. Every interaction is an opportunity to build lasting relationships based on trust, personalization, and care.

This keynote shares a powerful, scalable belief system for winning patients for life. It’s not about chasing the latest marketing trends—it’s about consistently making every patient feel seen, heard, and valued.

In healthcare, even the most skilled professionals can struggle with rushed decisions, paralyzing indecision, and the exhaustion of constant choices.
