As well as his proven Internet and media background, Philip has an extensive knowledge of environmental issues.

Notable Experience

◦ Philip was brought in to design, implement and run a project management system for Freewebs' advertising sales division. Within two months, as a result of Philip's work, project teams which had been routinely failing were able consistently to deliver on schedule and meet requirements.
◦ On the back of his success with advertising projects, Freewebs tasked Philip with designing and building a project management infrastructure from the ground up. Philip worked directly with department heads and developers themselves to get them thinking in terms of iterative development, finally putting in place a modified Scrum system. Because of Philip's work, product enhancements happen in planned but adaptive iterations, and Freewebs' product development velocity has dramatically increased.
◦ Philip was the client contact and project manager on a technology selection project for a major, government-funded institute. The project’s outputs were very well received by the client, and the project was identified within Mindshare as the blueprint for how future technology selection projects should work.
◦ Philip was project lead for two long-term Mindshare clients, each with budgets over $12,000 per year. In this role, he provided effective management of their interactive communications, as well as strategic planning and technical advice.
◦ Philip provided communications consulting to Citizens for Global Solutions for a major event. His strategic plan outlined goals, pitch points, and target audiences that yielded excellent media coverage.
◦ Philip took the lead on a $12,000-per-month account for Fenton Communications. The client—a policy think-tank—required a combination of strategic planning, media monitoring, writing media materials, and pitching, as well as project management and budgeting. The organization kept up an excellent rate of media exposure in part due to Philip’s alert management of their account.
◦ At the Environmental Law Institute, Philip provided research for a variety of environmental law projects. Most notably, Philip’s contribution to research was recognized in The Environmental Consequences of War (2000).
◦ During his internship with the United Nations Environment Programme in Kenya, Philip tracked down overdue outputs from countries participating in the Biodiversity Data Management project. This involved encouraging national governments and organizations on several continents to produce promised documentation.
