Like many people, James Berg regularly has chats about business and gets advice from his Dad. The difference for James is that his Dad, Phil Berg, is a sought-after speaker and trainer who went from selling carpets on a market stall to presenting, helping and influencing thousands of businesses all over the world. Known for his heartfelt, inspiring and common-sense approach, Phil is one of those rare people who can take an audience on a journey of feel-good emotions; reinforcing belief in themselves and leaving them feeling inspired to pursue their life and business goals. Outside of his speaking engagements, people don't often get the chance to hear Phil's brilliant advice, so James decided to start this podcast to share the business chats him and his Dad have with all of you.
