Still not sure? Ask yourself:
- Do I know exactly what I want to create in 2025 and beyond?
- Am I thinking big enough about my potential impact?

If you answered no to any of these – and you’re ready to do something about it. Welcome to Phoenix.
What is Phoenix?
Phoenix is where change happens. Not through PowerPoint presentations or lectures, but through Dr Sam Collins’ unique and tested approach to collective intelligence (CQ).
Let’s be clear: if you’re looking for a comfortable day out of the office, this isn’t it. But if you want to create real change – in yourself, your organisation and the wider world – you’re in the right place.
This programme helps you get crystal clear about what you want to change and why it matters. In an increasingly AI world, our human skills – like vision creation, genuine intuition, real empathy and deep understanding – are becoming our edge.
Who is it for?
Team leaders, managers, directors and executives from across different industries and sectors who:
- Understand that learning, education and a broad network is key to their success.
- Are successful but want to have a bigger influence on others.
- Want to gain a network, benchmarks and innovative perspectives outside of their company or industry.
- Lead teams or organisations but sense there’s a better way to engage and motivate others.
- Need to deliver results in an ever complex and changing world.
- Want tools that work in real and often difficult life.
- Are ready to think differently about what’s possible.
- Care about people, equality and inclusion.
- Get bored by lectures and purely academic type programmes.
- Can be skeptical of traditional development and want something different.
- Struggle with multiple home and work stressors and finding time to focus on themselves.
- Have been told that they are too “emotional/nice/much/assertive” in the past and know this isn’t a bad thing.
- Feel sometimes hopeless about world events and want to do something.
- Know they have the potential to make a real and lasting difference.
What to expect:
- No theory without real life implementation.
- No nodding politely.
- No complaining or blaming.
- No mindless chat.
- No corporate buzzwords.
Instead:
- Individual and systems coaching to move you forward.

- Challenging exercises that push your boundaries.
- Space to think bigger.
- Tools you can actually use tomorrow morning.
