Paul Mengert is very highly regarded as the founder and current CEO of Association Management Group. AMG is a management company that functions as a shorter version of a Masters of Business Administration (MBA) program. The classes in the program are taught by Harvard Business School alumni, who happen to live in the Greensboro, North Carolina area, where Paul was born and raised and where he located AMG's offices. A great many of the instructors for these classes are executives with various companies, serving as managing partners, presidents, and even CEOs.

One reason he started AMG is because Paul Mengert believes that it is important to give back to the community, whether you do it personally or through business activity or a little of both. He has become a highly regarded leader in the homeowners’ association management industry, primarily in the Carolinas, but also nationwide. He likes to teach the principles in homeowners’ associations how to be more effective because it makes everyone better.

Under Paul Mengert, Association Management Group also participates in activities designed to make the community better, such as a food drive for Greensboro Urban Ministry, which collected more than 1 million pounds of food for the poor in The Carolinas, primarily in Greensboro.

When Paul Mengert founded Association Management Group (AMG) in 1984 in Greensboro, North Carolina, he did so as a way to give back. AMG serves as a touchstone to the city where he was born and raised, and Paul will never hesitate to demonstrate love and appreciation for his community. His strong belief in giving back is evident in every move he and his company makes. For example, over time, dozens of local Greensboro companies have sent executives to the Management Development Program at the Harvard Business School Alumni Association of Charlotte, North Carolina. He teaches classes for them, and he feels like that is a boon for the local community.

It can be said that Paul Mengert’s life has been in service to his community, beginning with his education. He majored in Political Science and Communications at the University of North Carolina, Greensboro many years ago, and proceeded to devote much of his life and career to education and training. The companies which have made use of his services include prominent organizations like Microsoft and Pfizer, in addition to AMG. Paul Mengert has also served on the national senior faculty for the Community Associations Institute for years, and the homeowner's association classes he teaches are continuing education credits, accepted by groups as diverse as the North Carolina Board of Realtors, the South Carolina Department of Real Estate, and many others.
