- Jackson Siler, Consumers
I’m Paul Porras—a keynote speaker, leadership coach, and operations executive—but more importantly, I’m someone who has lived in the middle of chaos. From serving in the Air Force to leading large-scale transformations in healthcare and technology, I’ve seen how complexity slows people down, burns out teams, and clouds leadership. My journey taught me something powerful: simplicity isn’t just nice to have—it’s the difference between being stuck and moving forward.
That's my why.
I want leaders and teams to discover the same freedom I’ve found—to strip away the noise, design with intention, and unlock their best results through simplicity. I preach this because I’ve experienced what happens when we embrace it: leaders gain clarity, teams align, decisions come faster, confidence grows, and results multiply. When we cut the clutter, we free ourselves to focus on what truly matters—at work and at home.
For me, that’s family first: my wife, our three kids, and our two boxers who remind me daily not to overcomplicate life.
