About our presenter

Paul Decker shares his insights from life experience helping people and organizations adjust and thrive in the 21st Century. He has worked in sales and as an executive for Xerox, Bausch & Lomb, local and internationally based manufacturing firms, and serves on several Boards.

In 1997 Paul’s life was interrupted by a sudden diagnosis of a large mass in the right lung. It turned out to be a cancerous tumor, and had spread to his lymph nodes. His right lung and several lymph nodes were removed, and six weeks later he started chemotherapy, followed by radiation. It was a shock since Paul had never smoked and displayed no tell-tale symptoms. After a year of strenuous rehabilitation, Paul was back rebuilding his life.

Recently completing his Master’s degree, learning and implementing new skills has proven successful for Paul, and he brings those skills to life in his keynote speeches, strategic planning sessions, leadership and sales training seminars, coaching, and mentoring.

Paul works with a vast array of private clients that include Fortune 500 organizations, businesses with 10 to 200 people, non-profits, universities and business associations.  Paul has developed customized training programs for firms based on customer needs, industry protocols, his vast experience, and the latest research from his teaching and learning. Paul teaches in the Small Businesses Center at Waukesha County Technical College and currently serves as District Trainer for Rotary International District 6270 and will be District Governor in 2010-11. He is also on the Midwest Division Board of Directors for the American Cancer Society.
