Rich Phillips began his career as a communication consultant at the White House. He was interested in anti-poverty policy and education. He wanted to change the world. But he quickly learned that no solution is viable – in public policy, in business, or in life – without a strong, communication strategy.

Words matter. You cannot win customers without a strong, clear, relevant story that is memorable and trustworthy. You cannot build an ecosystem to support a new idea without communicating the relevant value, benefit, or promise.

For more than 25 years, Rich Phillips and his team have helped companies, non-profits, and government leaders build leadership momentum for products, services, and ideas. Clients have included hundreds of startups, small businesses, and large enterprises including Boeing, the Environmental Protection Agency, the European travel Commission, Honeywell, The Lego Group, Lockheed, NASA, and The Republic of Egypt. We have helped launch products, re-position companies and craft a vision for the exploration of Mars.

Over the years, the team has developed proprietary strategies for branding, messaging, and positioning focused on fostering a unique and compelling leadership identity. There are eight distinct leadership identities that govern an organization’s potential influence and role in the world. This underlying framework guides every customer engagement we do.
