Paul Spiers

Champion of Principled Leadership & Purpose-Driven Organisations in the Age of AI

Founder of The New P&L® Institute and host of the internationally-respected top 5% podcast series, The New P&L® – Principles & Leadership in Business, Paul speaks on and works at the intersection of leadership, culture, innovation and purpose.

Paul’s engaging keynotes and workshops aim to help senior leaders, employees and companies better prepare for the more complex Future of Work by advising on how they can transform and align their leadership, vision, strategy and culture to elevate business performance.

A respected advocate for a ‘New P&L’ for Business – one based on Principles & Leadership not just Profit & Loss, Paul is a naturally creative storyteller and a highly engaging and inspiring speaker, panel moderator and roundtable facilitator.

His keynotes are filled with insightful and thought-provoking observations that offer practical examples on how to apply the true power of purpose, creativity, principles and leadership in business.
Paul’s new book ‘The New P&L - Principles & Leadership: A six-step framework for more principled leadership & purpose-led business’ will be published in late 2025.

Of Irish, English and Māori descent (Ngā Mahanga a Tairi), Paul grew up on the south-west coast of the North Island in Aotearoa / New Zealand, before emigrating to the UK in his late 20s. He is a regular surfer, trail runner and travel enthusiast.

Testimonials from Teachers

“Paul provided a keynote on ‘transactional to transformational leadership’ for my department. An inspirational and thought-provoking session expertly delivered and made a great contribution to our day of learning. I would highly recommend Paul if you want to develop your leadership to be truly transformational.”


– ​Jenny Baynes, Change & Transformation Director, University of Leeds

“I highly recommend Paul for anyone seeking an insightful speaker on leadership and purpose. Paul's ability to captivate an audience with thought-provoking insights and real-world examples was brilliant. His keynote presentation left a lasting impact on our Senior Leadership Team, sparking important conversations and starting us on our journey to drive us towards our collective purpose.”


– ​Shalen Suchak, Head of Culture and Employee Experience, Westminster City Council

“A great keynote from Paul. He challenged us to think about leadership differently. I took away ideas to mull over and consider about my own leadership style and some useful, practical ideas to discuss with my team. Love it when someone can ‘give you the words’ to express concepts clearly and concisely - it makes it simple to remember and most importantly, to communicate them onwards.”

– ​Louise Hill, CEO, Go Henry
