George Phirippidis is president and senior consultant at KerrHill, a business management consulting firm which specializes in transforming managers into successful business leaders.

What led to George’s career path in coaching, consultation and facilitation was a career change; previously CEO for an e-commerce based mail order company, for over ten years. He realized he wanted to help businesses improve their performance and overall bottom line by developing company’s leadership and management teams.

His passion for leader and manager development inspired him to write the Six Functions of Management, an interactive manager’s field guide that captures the key lessons from his 2-3 day training courses. This book is designed to help people in management positions understand, assess and create action plans for the six most critical functions of management – communicating, planning, organizing, staffing, controlling and leading.

George’s simple but powerful business tools and lessons that are listed in the Six Functions of Management have successfully transformed thousands of professionals into business leaders. His teachings “stick” with people because they are interactive, easy to learn, use, and can be applied to both personal and professional development.
