John Maxwell Certification
Travelling to the USA in 2011, Phil had the privilege of becoming a Founding Partner of The John Maxwell Team. As part of the certification process, Phil was immersed in the leadership philosophy of John Maxwell, receiving training alongside other international coaches and even enjoying dinner with John at his home.
John C. Maxwell is an internationally respected leadership expert, speaker, trainer, coach and author, whose philosophy is: “Everything rises and falls on leadership.”
Having served for several decades as a Senior Pastor, Maxwell devoted himself to full-time speaking and writing in 1995. Often called America’s #1 leadership authority, Maxwell was identified as the most popular leadership expert in the world by Inc. magazine in 2014. He was also voted the top leadership professional six years in a row on LeadershipGurus.net. Maxwell is a #1 New York Times best-selling author of over 77 books, with more than 24 million volumes sold in fifty languages. Three of his books, The 21 Irrefutable Laws of Leadership, Developing the Leader Within You, and The 21 Indispensable Qualities of a Leader have each sold over a million copies.
Since becoming a Leadership Coach, Trainer and Speaker, Phil has had the privilege of working with businesses, Churches and not-for-profit organisations (including Willow Creek Australia and 96 Five Family FM) to expand their influence. His delivery of various leadership training and development programs has developed and equipped Pastors across many denominations, applying the John Maxwell materials to their unique settings.

Coaching, Training & Speaking
Since 2011, in addition to sharing at conferences and leadership seminars around Australia, Phil has facilitated small group leadership training for pastors, ministry leaders and business people in Brisbane and Coffs Harbour, as well as remotely via skype. These groups are called ‘Masterminds’, and enable like-minded leaders to gather together for structured leadership training, over periods of 6-8 weeks. These stimulating think-tanks cover a range of topics including: Everyone Communicates, Few Connect and Leadership Gold.
