Testimonials

Paul Thies is one of the most creative, resourceful and prolific Communications professionals I have ever worked with.  I was Paul's manager at Thomson Reuters for a few years.  During that time he created a number of magazines targeting our customer segments, produced award-winning annual reports, wrote thought-provoking blogs and conducted interviews with international thought leaders.  He would come up with the concept, line up the expert contributors, oversee the design, do most of the writing and editing -- and also the marketing that generated steady growth among our readers.  He is amazingly versatile. – Michael Moore, Founder, Core Narrative

I can't say enough great things about Paul - he has significantly increased the level of communications and employee engagement in our business but also raised the quality and relevance of our communications off the chart. He has personally spearheaded a number of innovative approaches to broaden the communication spectrum including follow the leader, cross-BU live chats, video postings of really relevant and informative Executive interviews and a broad employee 'getting to know you' section. Most importantly I always find Paul's choices of topic very relevant - he is really in touch with what our internal community is interested in and finds lots of fun and interesting ways to engage everyone across the team in addressing those areas. – Charlotte Rushton, President, Tax Professionals at Thomson Reuters 

Paul is a get-it-done professional. I have had the opportunity to work with him on various projects and he has demonstrated a keen level of creativity, strong ability to execute and has the work ethic that is second to none. – Cary Burch, Managing Partner, Bryce Capital LLC 

Paul is a wonderful person and an excellent professional. He has a heart of gold and cares dearly about the folks around him. He's an excellent writer and a strong task-master. I watched Paul take Stream Energy's media and public relations presence from the company's launch up to nearly $1B in annual revenue (including print, television, online and social). At times, Paul had a large team; at other points, he was a one-man shop. Paul is excellent at every phase. – Greg Martin, Founder, Japan Power & Gas 

Paul is an idea-man in the true sense of the word. He knows how to connect with his audience and come up quickly with ways to reach them on a particular topic. But perhaps the most impressive thing about Paul is he then executes on his ideas quickly and professionally. His output is really extraordinary. Lastly, Paul does everything with a sense of fun, and his good humor and inherent kindness comes through in his communications. – Adam Schair, Vice President, Internal Communications, New York Insurance Company

If you like people that come prepared, bring fresh ideas to the table, and challenge the status quo you will like Paul. Since he's joined Thomson Reuters, Paul has demonstrated a passion for doing what's right and in the process rejuvenated our internal communications strategy for the better. Throw in the fact that Paul is an awesome person and you've got a pretty amazing communications leader that will inspire change and drive credibility throughout any organization. – Tobias Lee, award-winning chief marketing officer
