Phil Sanderson founded Parley to be just such a creative ally in May 2020 and since then Parley has worked with over one hundred clients in private equity (and PE backed companies), law and the arts. Whilst London based, Phil has also coached in the US, Asia and many European countries.
Phil specialises in the What Next conversation for individuals and teams. Often the coaching revolves around assistance in building leadership and cultural identity and the development of confidence to make the best key decisions.
He coaches CEOs, Managing Partners and other leaders. He also coaches pro bono in the arts.
Most of Phil’s coaching is triggered by a corporate client’s desire to support impactful change in their senior leaders and teams.

Coaching requires a special relationship. It involves a dialogue between equals and a dialogue with yourself. It requires mutual curiosity and creativity. It is an alliance.
