PHIL JEWELL BIOGRAPHY
The story of Phil Jewell and the way he delivers his message are so powerful, raw, and real that it is no surprise he has become the sought-after, inspirational keynote speaker he is. He uses powerful storytelling combined with practical and simple lessons, learned across countries, continents, and cultures
A graduate of the British Army’s Royal Military Academy of Sandhurst, arguably the world’s best leadership school, Phil Jewell has served with the British, Canadian, and US Army. By his mid-twenties, Phil Jewell was leading soldiers in overseas combat, going on to serve as a senior leader working alongside nations and cultures from around the world. His subsequent journey led him to become an executive in both the provincial and federal governments, as well as an academic leadership instructor, before founding two successful companies, one of which is his own boutique leadership development business.
Phil Jewell is a lifelong learner trying to show up every day. A human, with many flaws and failures that have made him who Phil Jewell is today.
At 26 years old Phil Jewell led a highly diverse, 40-person combat team in Afghanistan, involving numerous high-risk operations. Team members included the world-famous Gurkha, as well as soldiers from many different countries and cultures, including Afghanistan and Europe. Recounting stories eternalized through his own journal, these experiences taught him enduring lessons that he has consistently applied in many other industries and aspects of his life.
As a senior leader, Phil Jewell was seconded to the US Army and worked in the Headquarters that was responsible for all operations in the Middle East, including Syria and Iraq. This unique team included soldiers from over 100 different nationalities and cultures, all coming together under a single vision and goal.
In 2014, Phil Jewell was awarded the Commander of the Canadian Army commendation for leading the training and coordinating the deployment of a 350-person immediate response organization that provided military assistance to the Atlantic Provinces during natural disasters, such as hurricanes and flooding. The commendation stated that “Captain Jewell’s tireless efforts have directly contributed to the success of the unit’s high readiness preparations and have brought great credit to the Canadian Army”.
After his return from leading soldiers in combat in Afghanistan, Phil Jewell was hand-selected to plan and lead an intensive assessment course to select the future leaders of the British Army, including the Gurkha, who would deploy on operations. His ability to deliver this unique and intense selection ensured only the most competent leaders would go on to lead in combat.
In 2010, after transferring to the Canadian Army, Phil Jewell was entrusted to lead the training of newly commissioned officers in the Canadian Armed Forces, ensuring they had the correct training and preparation to become leaders themselves,
After leaving the Armed Forces, Phil Jewell took on the responsibility of leading a multi-disciplinary team responsible for the safety and security of all marine transportation in the Arctic Waters, importantly including the Northwest Passage. This complex role involved a very pollical and highly sensitive area of our Canada.
Feeling he’d done all he could as an executive in the Public Service, in 2020, during the height of the pandemic, Phil Jewell co-founded and successfully launched two companies that he still operates with his business partner and wife.
All these experiences have shaped him into who Phil Jewell is today and have led to him being requested to deliver main stage, opening, and closing keynotes, leaving his audience in awe at his unique and fresh message.

Powerful storytelling combined with practical and simple lessons, learned across countries, continents, and cultures.
We’re all leaders, no matter whether we hold an official leadership position or not, and no one ever passes the course that says that’s it, you’re now a leader. We’re all learning, all growing, all failing.
In “Serve To Lead”, Phil shares his three most important leadership principles, two practical questions any leader should ask, and one thought to ponder.
Phil Jewell will do this whilst recounting his times on patrol in the wadi’s and deserts of Afghanistan and the lessons he learned on the way; ones that had been introduced to him during his training and became embodied during some of the most intense challenges a leader can face.
Subsequently becoming the cornerstone of his leadership, Phil Jewell will share how he has successfully transferred and applied them in his second leadership career outside the Army.
Regardless of the industry or sector, Phil strongly believes his 3-2-1 principles can be, and should be, universally applied. This follows his motto: that leadership is leadership is leadership, and it starts with oneself, regardless of the industry or profession.
Main takeaways:
- Three principles we all need to live with, centred around character, trust and owning who we are.
- Two questions we should all ask daily, focussed on developing those around us and maximising the talents we have.
- Leave with the one enduring thought that we should all ponder.
