Rough Diamonds is a selection of articles from leadership coach, author and founder of the human enterprise, Paul Mitchell. 

Building on the advice in his #1 Amazon Australia Bestselling book, Your Leadership Diamond, and following the same 7-facet structure, this compilation is for busy leaders who often don’t have major chunks of time free for reading, and who aren’t too linear in nature.

Even reading one chapter a day gives a great boost. Some chapters are short and sweet, some are much longer. Some outline specific actions or small tweaks, and some just leave you to reflect.

Paul Mitchell has been inspiring leaders in all walks of life for over thirty-five years. His unique background in education, psychology, and business has seen him become an authority and trusted colleague to some of Asia-Pacific’s most senior leaders.

As the managing director and founder of the human enterprise, he has always had one simple and clear message: you can create great enterprises and still make them truly human.

He has two main areas of focus. One is inspiring leaders at every level of the organisation, irrespective of their position or title, to take full responsibility for their own lives and for total organisational results. The other is encouraging leaders to lead in all areas of their lives, not just business. These core beliefs have seen him deliver leadership coaching services, development programmes, facilitation, and keynotes in over fifteen countries with well over ten thousand leaders.

Paul has a bachelor’s in social science, a master of arts in psychology, and a diploma of education. He is a founding member of The Interest Group in Coaching Psychology in Australia, as well as a certified Marshall Goldsmith Executive Coach.
