“When I first met Phil, we were working on creating academic courses for the Boston University Questrom School of Business. He was extremely generous with his time and demonstrated a great commitment to what was at the time just an idea. In meeting with BUQSB Department Chairpersons, he was able to easily bridge the worlds of outdoor education leadership and higher education, so that they were able to visualize and understand how [Expedition] Leadership models could help their program and lay the foundation for new programs in the future. His ability to embrace a vision of the future while tempering it with the reality of the logistics of operations sets him apart.

“Phil Bailey once again has set the tone for our leadership team to get off on the right foot. His decades of experience working with groups in the field has led to a clear and easily transferable approach to meet teams where they’re at and set them up for success. Phil helped us clarify our motivations, intentions, and goals, so that we could ensure a high level of communication, safety, and stay united during the five-week program we were about to lead. He helped us identify which daily structures and tools we could use to help us best serve the participants. As a result of his invaluable training, our team was able to stay on the same page more often, be more collaborative and create a culture of honesty and respect. I’m truly grateful.

With MASTERPOINT Strategies, everything is presented in a way that engages you. Everything written and suggested is easily and immediately applicable when and where you need it!
The material leads you through the process from the very beginning, throughout the implementation phase, and has usable tools to keep you on the right track!
I would strongly like to recommend Phil and MASTERPOINT Strategies to everyone who would like to get a slightly different perspective on the staff and risk management strategies needed in a fast-paced and challenging environment.
