"We saw such impressive growth throughout the team in these three days, which would normally take years of experience. Our team learned about presentation development, persuasion, reading the audience, body language, negotiation and more. Videoing practice presentations were a particularly effective learning experience.

Phil is not only a good instructor; he also is a skillful facilitator. He creates a collaborative learning environment and brings real life examples with his rich experience. I have highly recommended that we consider Phil for any follow up communication and leadership coaching or training at our company."
