Together, we can think bigger, go further, and have more fun getting there

The Story

Twenty-one years ago, I graduated with a Master’s degree in Engineering and promptly decided to make the best use of it by starting a career in sales. Let’s face it, you don’t get to talk to many people as an engineer.

Over the course of my sales career, I discovered that as much as I enjoyed hitting the road and making sales happen, I enjoyed training people on how to go out and achieve even more through networking and word-of-mouth marketing.

Since then, I have taken every step that I can to learn more, network more and connect more people. In 2006, I joined Business Network International (BNI) and took on the Regional Directorship for the Middle East in 2007. As part of this role, I helped launch new chapters and trained their chapter directors and core group members.

I have also channeled this love of referrals into launching and maintaining the most successful chapter of BNI in the region.

I am also a qualified Master Trainer for Asentiv, drawing upon the ten years of experience that I have accumulated to help private companies and networking associations.

When I am not training, attending BNI sessions, kite surfing or teaching salsa, you can find me speaking at different venues around the UAE and abroad, talking about how to live a dream life.

What Sets Me Apart

When it comes to succeeding at business and life, a lot of people will insist that you follow a very stringent set of rules. And if you deviate from the rules you will fail.

What makes me, The Rebel Networker, different is that I encourage you to play to your strengths and also to accept challenges. It doesn't matter where you are now, it's where you want to be that's important. There are no rules. All I ask is that you keep an open mind.

My Philosophy

I believe we can create our ideal life today. By rebelling against the norm, we can unleash our potential, to live a spectacular lifestyle doing what we love, and loving what we’re doing.

My Values

  • Integrity
  • Family

Your ability to craft your message within interesting stories and anecdotes is a real skill and a joy to watch. In addition, your message contained useful information which I was able to apply straight away.

@ Global Speakers Federation

We had an excellent event by Phil Bedford on the topic of Business Referrals. The audience was overwhelmed by the interactive session where they were able to practically calculate the difference between selling with and without referrals. Phil’s style of connecting with people was excellent and it was a delight to see him in action.
