Paul Mitchell

Paul Mitchell, not related to the famous hair-care guy (unfortunately), grew up in Alabama and then moved to Atlanta, Georgia after he graduated from Auburn University (War Eagle!).

Over the next twenty years, he helped many medium to large size companies build strong IT Service Management organizations (or, put more simply, he helped them build a bunch of processes other people had to follow). Along the way, he learned success comes from trust, and trust comes from people (and people like to laugh and eat). He and co-author, Nicole White, chronicled their adventures in team building and the art of successful potlucks in their hilarious book "Hooves High (and other tails from across the cube wall)." Kirkus Reviews called their book "a hoot" and Mitchell/White a "dynamic comic duo."

He and his wife, Marilyn, have three amazing children and three dogs at home, and an extended brood that includes two nieces, one nephew, and three more dogs that are often there as well. His favorite foods are Tortica de Moron cookies (Cuban sugar cookies) and ketchup (certainly a food group in its own right).
