Looking across the value stream for pin-pointed win:win improvements, Phil has delivered £200M in benefits. He excels at switching-on people to want to make a difference and own the success.

Bruce Faulkner
Applies the power of Behavioural Science to the workplace
Bruce knows why people do what they do and knows well-meaning targets often drive the wrong behaviours. His background in big engineering projects gave him the motivation to learn about people. He is a master in unpicking the DNA of an organisation; getting managers to say the right things so that teams do the right things and clients love them.
