I’m Ken Anderson, founder of Phoenix Rises, a training and consultancy business specialising in improving Communication, Conflict Resolution, Resilience and Mental Health in the workplace.

I spent almost 20 years in Policing, including roles as an Authorised Firearms Officer, Specialist Communications Trainer and Police Trainer, where communication, managing conflict and performing under pressure were essential.

I later spent four years working alongside Leeds Trinity University, developing and delivering training for Police Officers, and I hold a City & Guilds Level 4 Diploma in Learning and Development.

Through Phoenix Rises, I now use that experience to deliver bespoke workshops, consultancy and corporate away days for organisations ranging from growing businesses to large national employers. My work has included projects across multiple UK locations, in many different sectors, working with frontline employees and management to identify and improve communication, reduce conflict, increase engagement and enhance workplace cultures.

Phoenix Rises brings together elite operational experience, professional training expertise and lived experience to provide something different from traditional, textbook focused, corporate training.
