Victoria DePaul founded Galileo Business & Learning Consultants in 2007 after many years in human resource management. As a retired corporate executive, Ms. DePaul has gained extensive experience in the development of human potential holding positions as supervisor, manager, leader and corporate trainer. Through seminars, consulting and speaking engagements she continues to motivate and move people toward peak-performance in all areas of life.
Her personal development and self-mastery style is based on her personal, management and business leadership success and is documented in “Creating the Intrapreneur: The Search for Leadership Excellence. Here readers learn that organizations are energy systems where the basic unit of power of any energy system, whether it be a business, a family, a neighborhood, or a global community is the individual.
The power of this new business methodology is its recognition that every person is a Life Energy, Spirit entity, an energy system itself consisting of Wisdom, Power, and Value. This Life Energy can manifest itself as either positive or negative. Organizations can control the positive or negative outflow of energy once they understand how to harness the true quantum, spiritual energies of its members.
When businesses, organizations and communities begin to understand the ultimate motivation of all persons – the experience of more and more Life Essence Energy, they can be the catalyst for positive, permanent change in people, their families and communities- local, national and global. At the core of Creating the Intrapreneur is the knowledge that all that exists is Energy – Human Quantum Energy, the Energy of Life itself.
Based in personal experience and application, the concepts that Victoria introduces are more than theory— they are the proven steps to organizational transformation. For much of her career, Victoria struggled with how to motivate people to higher levels of performance. What she found was that the primary motivation of each of us is the desire to be happy, whether at work or at play. Further, she discovered what true happiness is- the full experience of our creative, spirit Self. In order to achieve excellent results, all that was necessary was to empower others to express their unique creativity. In other words, she learned to provide the vision, guidance and tools and then got out of the way. The natural result was a motivated and innovative workforce, leading to increased production results, high levels of morale and accountability.
Victoria, parent of two teenage sons, holds a Bachelors of Science Degree in Interdisciplinary Studies- Business Administration, from the New York Institute of Technology.

The LEAD Training Program is available for leaders, managers and associates. These seminars demonstrate how people are the ultimate source of energy, and therefore the power of your organization. An organization is a complex energy system. Positive human energy is the power that gets things done and achieves the objectives of your business. Negative human energy is the primary cause of conflicts, problems, decreased production, and therefore the degree of profitability of an organization. This negative human energy reduces the power of an organization much more so than problems with equipment, budget constraints, or other physical systems of the organization.
The LEAD Program will:

“Every group of people is a human energy system, including a couple, a family, a work group or team, a small business, a huge corporation, a nonprofit organization, a church, a political party, a government, a society, and a nation. Human energy systems intake, transport, use, transform, and output energies of many kinds and forms. Every such group is an alignment of individual energies toward common goals and purposes. Groups or organizational energy systems synergize and concentrate energies of all kinds, human and physical, to create enough power to achieve things far beyond the power of lesser energy systems. The definition of power, remember, is the ability to produce the desired results.”
From “Creating the Intrapreneur: The Search for Leadership Excellence by Victoria DePaul
The secret to powerful leadership is understanding that there is a clear distinction between inspiration and motivation.
And what is that distinction?
For your business it is the difference between profit and loss and success and failure.
You know that your organization is not operating at peak potential. Morale is low. Stress levels are high. You continuously receive demands to produce more with less. Professional relationships are strained and there is a lack of cooperation and support between teams. Absenteeism, tardiness and turn-over rates are on the rise as employees take on an indifference to the mission and goals of the organization.
Recognizing that action is necessary to infuse positive energy into your work climate you hire motivational speakers and trainers. The speakers provide a tremendous boost for your teams; employees leave the training infused with positive energy and a go-get-em attitude. For awhile you may experience a positive change in the work environment. But does it last?
Chances are high that the rah-rah spirit was just a moment, unable to sustain any real change in the work energy climate.
What you have experienced is the difference between inspiration and motivation. Inspiration awakens people. Motivation moves people. Few people really understand what motivates people. It is this lack of knowledge of what really motivates each of us that keeps firms from achieving higher levels of success. To affect meaningful, permanent change you must change the way people think— you must change the way you think.
Most speakers and trainers are adept at providing inspiration— but inspiration is short-lived and certainly not the best use of your training dollars.
To create permanent change you must accept that people are the ultimate source of energy and therefore the Power of your business. This Power is responsible for all the thinking, planning, designing and implementation that occur. They deal with each other and interface with customers. They are responsible for the results you achieve— negative or positive.
Your business is a complex energy system, where each employee is the basic unit of energy. In order to produce the positive results that you desire your employees must be operating in positive energy.
It is impossible to improve the organizational energy systems as long as the basic unit of Power, your employees, are generating negative energy.
The way to create this change is by understanding the ultimate motivation of everyone in your organization: to achieve higher and higher experiences of positive energy and less and less negative energy. Personal power is defined as the ability to produce the results you desire in life. Organizations have the unique opportunity to increase the personal power (positive energy) of their employees while increasing organizational results and objectives simultaneously.
Teaching leaders, managers and individuals how to improve the energy system of employees and organizations. This is achieved by guiding you to understand that personal empowerment (necessary for happiness) is the ultimate motivation of all effort and behavior.
