QUIETSPACING - Key Persons


Christopher S. Tuttle

The other day I a received a very rewarding email. Chris Tuttle - friend, former client, and intellectual property attorney at Alleman Hall McCoy Russell & Tuttle - lobbed a completely unsolicited QuietSpacing® case study over the fence. I asked him if I could post it here to demonstrate how people actually use QuietSpacing® in their hectic day-to-day lives. He agreed! So, after confirming that the images displayed don't disclose any sensitive information, here is what Chris had to say.

(www.outdoorplay.com) which has grown to become the largest online kayaking retailer in the country. While grooming a management team to run the company, Paul became acutely aware of the many challenges faced by today's busy professionals. In response, he founded Vision Mechanix where he developed the QuietSpacing® system. Today, Paul travels the country giving high-content keynote addresses focused on delivering best practices suggestions to audiences, delivering interactive QuietSpacing® training programs, and working one-on-one with clients in a customized coaching program to help them achieve greater success.

As a successful entrepreneur, executive and former corporate attorney, Paul is well-qualified to work with executives and professionals and has an intimate understanding of the unique challenges they face. He is passionate about his work and has found his own brand of success as a thought-leader and trail-blazer in the field of productivity and time management. Paul presented at our 2010 AHRMA Annual Conference, which is the second time he has spoken to our group. Paul's presentation style and content were a big hit. 100% of the attendees that this presentation met their expectations and more. We definitely recommend Paul and hope he will speak at yet another AHRMA conference! Wendy Chance, CTS, President Elect, Austin Human Resources Management Association
