About Paul Tevis

Paul Tevis works with leaders, groups, and teams to help them navigate change, particularly around issues of leadership, strategy, and culture. As an executive and team coach, Paul focuses on building clients’ own capacity to address their current and future challenges in these areas. He found his passion for this work in an unusual place – software development. Paul began his career as a software engineer, where he realized the most difficult problems to solve were not technical ones. The real challenges he saw arose from the question of how groups could work together effectively. Through his work on Lean and Agile processes, he discovered and fell in love with coaching and facilitation.
Paul has trained extensively as a coach and as a facilitator. He is an Organization and Relationship Systems Certified Coach (ORSCC). He is also an experienced improviser and a member of the Applied Improvisation Network, a worldwide organization devoted to bringing the collaborative tenets of theatrical improvisation from the performance stage to the larger world.
