Are your leaders and teams struggling with:

• The high-pressure environment that leads to emotional flooding?
• Team members who are “checking out” or hiding how they feel?
• Managers who lack the tools to handle difficult, emotional conversations?

You don’t need another “inspiration-only” speaker. You need a trusted expert who provides practical sessions which give your people a “wealth of different tools” they can deploy immediately.

Phil’s programs are famously “no-PowerPoint.” They are interactive, thought-provoking, and designed for immediate, positive impact.

How to Work with Emotion So It Flows, Instead of Flooding Out

Best for: Senior Leaders, C-Suite, and Managers in high-pressure environments.

The Problem: Your best people are drowning in the stress of emotional flooding, their own and their team’s. This leads to burnout, poor decisions, and a culture of firefighting all of which are a direct drain on team performance and retention.

Your Audience Will Leave With:

• • A proven framework to spot the physical and mental cues of emotional flooding before they take over.

• Practical “circuit breakers” to regain control and make clear, high-quality decisions under pressure.

• The skills to “understand what good and brilliant leadership could look like” (Testimonial) in emotionally charged moments which define your culture.

Where We Harness How We Feel, Instead of Hiding It Away

Best for: Entire Departments, Project Teams, and People Leaders.

The Problem: Your team’s “check engine light” is on, but no one is talking. Unspoken emotions (“hiding it away”) are manifesting as low engagement, gossip, and a lack of psychological safety. This is a massive blocker to the innovation, collaboration, and team resilience you’re trying to build.

Your Audience Will Leave With:

• Facilitative techniques to build a culture where emotion is treated as data, not drama unlocking higher levels of engagement.
• “Strategies to manage confrontational, difficult relationships” in a healthy, productive way.
• A “life-changing” new perspective on how to stop taking on emotion and start working with it to build trust and move projects forward.

The Five-Step Formula to Mastering Emotions at Work

Best for: A dedicated program for your management or high-potential cohort.

The Problem: You need a scalable, teachable system to help all your managers effectively navigate the human side of leadership.

Your Audience Will Leave With:

• Phil’s unique 5-step formula for mastering any emotional conversation.
• A “range of options” to adapt their style to different personalities and situations.
• The confidence and skills to “deploy into their roles in the business” with an impact that is “felt immediately.”
