It was a pleasure working with Paul. He totally transformed our engineering team's structure, processes and output, and actually in the meantime helped to transform my career! Many of us in the team were inspired by Paul to adopt Agile practices resulting in improved programmes at Alcatel-Lucent and now beyond. He was also a good source of advice for many wide ranging business issues, helping to tidy up your own thinking and setting you off on the right track.
