We’re proud to sponsor the U-Triumph Breakthrough Podcast series

PLG are proud to sponsor the U-Triumph Breakthrough podcast series founded by Trevor D Sterling, Senior Partner at Moore Barlow and Head of Major Trauma.

Trevor believes that by having the right mindset and determination you can ‘triumph’ and he wants to help others to fulfil their full potential.

Trevor’s podcasts are with special guests, and they explore the triumphs and tribulations of extraordinary leaders from diverse backgrounds.

Trevor D Sterling, Senior Partner Moore Barlow, explains:

“I am delighted U-triumph is sponsored by PLG. U-triumph’s aim is to not only inspire people to believe that they can “break-through” irrespective of their backgrounds, but also to create a platform to enable those who have broken through to “be the ladder” as per my belief that one should not simply aspire to climb the ladder, but aspire to be the ladder. PLG and their Managing Director, Phil Gill in particular, epitomise “being the ladder”. I am incredibly proud of our association with such a brilliant organisation.”

Phill Gill, Managing Director of PLG Consultants added:

“I really wanted PLG to be involved with this from the beginning. The notion of being the ladder for others and helping them to achieve and develop has been fundamental to our business. I have been managing people for most of my career and have always ensured they have been given equal opportunities to be the best they can be. It is great to be able to support Trevor, especially as I have always found him to be one of the most inspirational people in the industry.”
