Phil Jackson Bio

Phil Jackson has been in salons since 1999 and has seen the industry as an employee, salon owner, manager, and teacher. As a speaker and business book author, his approach is direct (sometimes called 'sassy!') and his advice is eminently practical. "I never wanted to be a guru, handing down advice. I am in the trenches with you, feeling your pain and fighting alongside you". With 20+ years of salon experience, a BSc in Banking and Finance and a Graduate Diploma in Law, Phil isn't spooked by the business side of salons. He sees his work as bringing sound and proven strategies to salons, without overwhelm. "In an industry largely driven by women, women of colour and the LGBTQ+ community, it's my job to make sure you have the strategies to win". Phil prides himself on his no-nonsense approach, delivering practical help when salon owners need it most. All, in his own words, "with a pinch of sass!"

Key Testimonials

"Phil's coaching has been invaluable to help me transition off the salon floor completely. He has worked with me and my new manager to ensure minimal disruption. After seeing a number of coaches in the past, I've found having an industry specific coach like Phil to be incredibly helpful. He is great at helping me to simplify things and concentrate on achieving my goals rather than getting overwhelmed with the detail. Phil has a great way of helping me identify key points. Thanks Phil!"
