About Paul Sylvester

I challenge every client who seeks my professional business coaching services to make positive changes in their lives before a life-altering event forces change beyond their control. I know what it's like to be stressed and overworked, how overwhelming it can be to manage a downsized staff, and how it feels when the job seems to consume your life.
Before buying a business coaching franchise and becoming certified as an International Business Coach, I worked as a Chief Information Officer (CIO) who supervised 400 IT engineers. I resigned after my first open heart surgery and dedicated my life's purpose and passion to help businesses thrive with talented employees and high-level management teams realizing their greatest potential.
One of only a few certified partners of The Five Behaviors of a Cohesive Team methodology, a partnership between Wiley Workplace Learning Solutions and best-selling author Patrick Lencioni, I truly appreciate life and work. I'm happiest "when I am awake and my feet are on the floor." A simple perspective, but one that works.

PROFESSIONAL:

  • Founded PS363, business leadership coaching, in 2010. His powerful coaching method holds executives accountable for their wants, needs, and actions.
  • Licensed and certified executive coach since 2004 (ActionCOACH International)
  • Named one of top five coaches worldwide (ActionCOACH International) Named one of the top 100 coaches worldwide, multiple times (ActionCOACH International)
  • Noted inspirational and motivational speaker for audiences of all sizes
  • Former CIO and executive vice president of KAR, a billion-dollar auction service company
  • Interim president for AutoVin, a subsidiary technology company of KAR

PERSONAL:

  • I enjoy coaching almost as much as I enjoy spending time relaxing with my grandchildren, attending sporting events of all kinds, and contemplating going skydiving for a second time!
  • My personal motto, "In Abundance" came from my own transformation following the heart surgeries. It's how I sign my emails, and my three daughters sport the words on upper-arm tattoos in my honor. To me, In Abundance, represents abundance in family, friends, relationships, health, spirit, possibilities, and wealth.
