Described by the Lawnet conference delegates as brilliant, humorous, stunning, thought provoking and genius. The messages and delivery were exactly what we were hoping for and the response from delegates exceeded our expectations. He was one of the key factors in many delegates pronouncing this the best conference they have ever been to.

I have started to use a lot of the ‘Killer Questions’ that Phil gave us at the conference. They work!!!
