David JP Phillips

David JP Phillips stands as a luminary in the art of communication, weaving the fabric of storytelling into the heart of public speaking and self-leadership. With a background as diverse as his heritage, Phillips embodies a blend of English resilience and Swedish innovation – a synergy that resonates deeply with the “Mind the Gap” conference’s ethos of intergenerational connectivity.

His unique 4-step method of “Observe, Analyse, Apply, Document” has birthed world-class materials in communication, shunning conventional learning to craft original, transformative content. This method not only revolutionized his understanding of public speaking but also became his beacon through the tumultuous journey of entrepreneurship and personal growth. His remarkable trajectory from a tech-savvy support technician at Microsoft to the founder of a successful IT company by age 20, and later an esteemed e-learning director in London, showcases his versatility and relentless pursuit of excellence.
