Hi Reader, If you've been here for a while you know the importance I place on partnerships as a way to grow organisations. I've closed 250+ deals that have materially changed the trajectories of my businesses and those of the leaders I coach. In 2025, I converted that knowledge into a program that included nine self-paced video tutorials, templates, workbooks and ChatGPT-based AI-assistants. This program, called The Partnership Lab, helped students to dramatically accelerate the identification of new partners and close high-value deals that changed the game their business was playing. Today I'm writing to let you know that you can access the entire program for free. In return, I have a simple ask. Put this knowledge and tools to good use, and share this email with one other person who could benefit from it.
Over to you, and I hope the week's closing out well for you. See you next Wednesday. Cheers, Phil Phil Hayes-St Clair PS Forwarded this email and it helped? Join us here. |

The restaurant was run by a man named Philip. He knew the store inside and out, and he knew that his mostly...

READ TIME: 9 MINUTES | 22 JULY, 2026 | READ ON PHILHSC.COM A year into building Drop Bio Health, I caught myself thinking about growth in a way I never had at any company before it. We were trying to put blood testing in people’s kitchens. A finger-prick sample, taken at home, used to catch chronic disease long before they could be diagnosed. And we were doing it in the middle of a pandemic, when the idea of anyone going anywhere near a clinic...

READ TIME: 7 MINUTES | 15 JULY, 2026 | READ ON PHILHSC.COM I made the Australian age-group triathlon team in 2004 and competed at the World Championships that year. If there had been a most-unlikely-to-succeed award for that, my name would have been at the top of the list. My method was simple and stubborn. Show up to training twice a day, work hard, repeat. The 100km swim weeks were met with 100km run weeks. As far as I was concerned, recovery...
