Philip Davis (co-founder)

Phil Davis is a co-founder of St. Charles Consulting Group (StCCG). He brings over 30 years of executive level expertise in human resources, training, and operations to his clients, most of which are large companies/firms with global operations.

Since starting the firm in 2002, Phil has worked on a variety of large scale client assignments. Among other projects, he led the design and creation of the entire workforce lifecycle, including all supporting developmental programs, for the start-up of a 50,000 employee enterprise. During this time, he has also delivered services to his clients in the areas of training design and development, integration of people and processes, team effectiveness, strategic facilitation and large scale program management.

Additionally, Phil manages the coaching services that are delivered globally through StCCG’s network of 400+ executive coaches. He has designed the processes and tools that support the deployment and service delivery of these coaches throughout the world. He also designed the customized programs through which these services are delivered on a consistently high quality basis to each of our clients.
Within StCCG, Phil fills the role of Managing Partner. He leads the business development activities and manages the operations of the firm which has 8 partners and approximately 35 fulltime employees/contractors. He also serves as the relationship and quality assurance partner on many of our significant accounts.

Prior to founding StCCG, Phil served as Partner in Charge of Global Operations for Andersen’s Learning and Personal Growth (L&PG), the firm’s worldwide training organization. He managed the global resources of L&PG, including approximately 500 learning professionals. L&PG was responsible for the design, development and delivery of all training courses and programs for Andersen’s global organization. The global learning activities for which he was directly responsible totaled $600+ million annually.

In 1995 Freeport Indonesia, a subsidiary of Freeport McMoran, recruited Phil to be their Senior Vice-President of Human Resources, Training and Administration. This role required him to relocate to a very remote island in eastern Indonesia. For six years, Phil worked for Freeport Indonesia at one of the largest copper and gold mines in the world.

During the first three years, Phil was responsible for all human resources, administration and training activities for Freeport and its 17,000 employees and contractors. He was also responsible for managing the company’s entire infrastructure, which included two company-owned cities with all supporting functions and services. During these three years, he designed and implemented a restructuring of the human resources and training areas.

His success during the first 3 years allowed him to move into an operations role. For the last three years at Freeport, Phil was the Executive Vice-President and Chief Administrative Officer, a role that he held for three years. During this time, he served on Freeport Indonesia’s Board of Directors and Executive Committee, which provided the strategic leadership and management for Freeport Indonesia. For personal reasons, Phil resigned from Freeport in March 2001 to repatriate his family to the United States.

Phil, a non-practicing CPA, spent the first 21 years of his career working for Arthur Andersen. The first half of his career there was spent providing auditing and financial consulting services to his clients. Later, he moved into a variety of leadership roles within Human Resources. In these roles, he managed various activities of recruiting, human resources and training for the firm in the Southwest US.
