Phil Hesketh
Phil Hesketh is a professional speaker on ‘The Psychology of Persuasion and Influence’. He combines a powerful mix of well-researched and persuasive techniques with his unique sense of humour. He inspires, entertains and informs audiences on how buying, selling and persuading can influence work. He is an inspiration, motivational and thought-provoking and all his techniques can be implemented instantly.
Phil Hesketh read psychology at Newcastle University before becoming a sales graduate from Procter & Gamble. In 1986, he started his own advertising agency – Advertising Principles – where he was also the business director and managing partner. Over 17 years of continuous growth, Philip had grown it from a business with zero clients to one bringing in £48 million with 150 employees, working alongside clients such as the BBC, General Accident, HSBC, Nestle and Walt Disney. He then sold the company with the aim of becoming a full-time professional speaker.
There was no denying Philip’s intentions; he set out to become the best speaker on the planet, and after speaking for more than 1,000 events in over 20 countries from the UK to Australia, it’s clear he has achieved his aim.
Wanting to reach people that couldn’t attend his events, Philip put pen to paper and has written a number of critically successful books including ‘How to Persuade and Influence People’, ‘Persuade’, ‘The Seven Golden Rules for a Happy and Successful Life’ and ‘Life’s a Game so Fix the Odds’.
His impressive credentials have earned him a number of awards such as the Vistage UK’s Outstanding Performer, Most Requested Speaker, Most Inspirational Speaker, Consistently Outstanding Performer, and TEC Australia’s Overseas Speaker of the Year. He is also a visiting fellow of Newcastle University.
