Paul Hanna: About Paul

Paul Hanna is now regarded as one of Australia's leading motivational speakers with clients that read like a who's who of this country's corporate elite: Qantas, Telstra, Lexus, Vodafone, BMW and NSW Police are just some of the clients who have used his services. McDonalds Australia and New Zealand have had more than 20,000 Management, Franchisees and Staff attend his programs. Coles Myer, Australia's largest employer has had more than 20,000 Management and staff attend his seminars at Target, Myer and K Mart. Holden and Toyota have between them had more than 20,000 Dealers, Management and staff also attend.
In May 1997, the publisher Penguin Books launched his first book called You Can Do It! which went to number one on release and stayed in the bestsellers list for a staggering six months. His following five books have all achieved bestseller status.

But in February 2002, Paul was presented with his biggest test to date. While enjoying his passion for bushwalking, Paul walked over what he thought was solid land, but it was brush, with just airspace below it. Paul fell three storeys down the cliff face, hitting three ledges, and eventually landing unconscious on the rocks below.

With Doctors fearing he would never walk again and with the prospect of living in a wheelchair a real possibility, Paul was faced with his biggest challenge ever.

In his 7th book, titled Don't Give Up!, Paul shares how he beat crushing spinal injuries to return to his passion of speaking, writing and coaching.

Paul's 8th book and latest release, The Success Motivator was released nationally on July 31, 2006 by Penguin Books.
