Paul Lyons has practical experience in business unit and subsidiary management from his 30 years with IBM. During this time he managed large international shared services centers and was consistently successful in growing these by adding more value to the corporation. He also worked at a headquarters level and oversaw international business units operating from Bulgaria, India, Ireland, The Philippines, Poland and the United Kingdom. He supported clients at a CxO level in planning and executing their organizational strategies. Throughout this time Paul maintained a deep interest in strategy formation at a business unit level - with an emphasis on how units can optimize their contributions and positioning within the internal networks of their parent organizations. He studied this topic at Masters and PhD level in Trinity Business School, Dublin. In recent years he has supported a large number of multinational subsidiaries in the formation of their strategies and developed a range of tools that have proved highly effective for these management teams.
