Highly recommended! Working closely with Doug Brown has been invaluable for me personally and for the growth of my architecture firm. He has helped me become more focused, grow as a leader, optimize my business structure, and most importantly, meet the lofty financial goals that we set for ourselves.

Doug Brown was certainly engaging as a speaker and shared some inspirational thoughts in August 2020 - even in an online format. More importantly however, he followed up with me (and I’m guessing others) to learn more about our Association and work. Over the course of several more conversations, we worked with Doug to develop a program that was customized to the needs of our members. He has been a fantastic professional, and delivers fully, and more, on his promises. We will be booking Doug again in the near future!

Doug Brown is a brilliant thought leader, business strategist, and mentor. Working with him in the last year has been a joy, and I highly recommend his work. His insights and his practical, goal-oriented approach to mentorship helped me tremendously while navigating a significant career change. Working with Doug made my transition from public service at the New York City Department of City Planning to my private sector leadership position at Matrix New World Engineering much easier. He is truly a master of his trade and is very deserving of every positive comment that you see in this recommendation section. Thank you, Doug!

Through working with Doug, our department developed a 5-year growth plan that we were able to achieve in half the time. Doug's insights and guidance proved invaluable and are directly attributable to the successful strategy employed. Thank you - Doug!

Doug helped me not just focus on what's really important but also see how some of the ways I was acting were actually obstacles to reaching my goals.

My company hired Doug Brown in 2008 when our results were not where we wanted them to be. Within a few weeks of working with Doug, we were already seeing the impact and within a few months I knew we had made a powerful investment by working together. Doug is not only a good listener and very insightful, he works with you persistently until you realize the change you need to make. I would highly recommend Doug to those interested in taking their business to the next level and are open to truly hearing the advice he has to offer.

Over the last few months Doug guided me through a Sales Process to refine my thought process in approaching sales. One of the key deliverables for me was Goal Achievement, as I like to call it. Anyone can set a goal, but not everyone can establish and achieve their goal, unless you use Doug’s methodology. For years I set goals in my corporate life with the expectation that we will achieve these goals, these objectives. Doug shares with you the importance of establishing a powerful WHY SMART goal and then shows you how to emotionalize the goal with respect to rewards and consequences. This is when you realize that you ‘own’ the goal, but the power in achieving success comes from identifying the obstacles that you will face and the solutions and actions you implement. Doug, your support and ability to leverage my strengths will forever be a part of all of my future successes.

The Leadership Training provided by Paradigm Associates enabled our squads to turn concerns and ideas into goals that can be achieved by breaking them down into smaller parts. Seemingly insurmountable obstacles became attainable dreams.
