“Peter is a genuinely inspiring facilitator and speaker who has the unusual ability to weave together a series of new ideas, tools and stories to give his audience a ‘tangible’ model to take away. Having enjoyed his thinking at a two day residential event, I booked him as a keynote speaker and he didn’t disappoint – event feedback from our guests was extremely positive.”
Ross Prince, Partner, Crowe Clark Whitehill
“By far one of the most useful and enjoyable seminars on business development we have ever hosted”
Dimitris Zepos, Managing Partner Zepos & Yannopoulos
We engaged Peter in 2012 for our Executive MBA programme for our international Senior Partners. Everyone was so absolutely delighted with his conference, that we have since invited him to facilitate multiple conferences and seminars with our partners and senior managers worldwide on Business Development.
We have now added a recurring BD seminar for partners, co-designed with and facilitated by Peter, to our catalogue of programmes. His conferences are insightful and enjoyable, leaving participants motivated and inspired, with clear, memorable messages. Just as importantly, to my mind, Peter is a great person to work with – he is adaptable (able to refine and retune presentations and workshops in real time), reliable, and has a great sense of humour.

Peter Alfandary ran and moderated our recent partner Retreat in Zurich. His contribution to the event was invaluable. Peter ensured that the meeting ran smoothly, that all partners were given a voice and that everyone's ideas and suggestions were listened to, synthesised and then converted into a workable action plan. His many years of experience in private practice, his skills in diplomacy and the emotional intelligence he displayed mean that I would have no hesitation in recommending him to others.

Peter Alfandary has run sessions for our associates and partners on both cross-cultural skills and business development. He has the credibility and anecdotes from many years of legal practice, combined with the ability to structure and deliver his sessions in an engaging, enthusiastic and interactive manner. I highly recommend Peter.

Thank you for your insights, knowledge, your patience and perseverance, your sense of humour and for becoming a friend to our firm. What you taught us can never be appreciated enough.

Peter Alfandary played a pivotal role in our recent 2 day All Lawyer Firm Retreat, gathering more than 300 lawyers. His keynote speech on the Power of Relationships was both instructive and inspirational and very well received by partners and associates alike. Peter also moderated a panel of prominent General Counsel Panel with flair and authority and his skills as presenter, organiser and moderator were again in evidence during the Mock Pitching Contest which took place on the second day of the Retreat. I would have no hesitation in recommending Peter and using him again. His many years of experience as a partner of a leading law firm add enormously to his credibility and persuasiveness and the way he can work with a law firm.

Peter recently addressed a conference of Warwick Legal Network (www.warwicklegal.com) on the subject of cross-introductions. I have rarely heard a speaker captivate a room of 75 lawyers, so that you could hear a pin drop - but Peter did it. He challenged and motivated us in equal measure. As a director of WLN, I am proud to have been associated with that event and recommend Peter for all such coaching & inspiration.
Stewart Miller, Senior Partner Miller Rosenfalk
I have had the pleasure of working with Peter Alfandary for over 20 years not only in his role of partner of a major law firm but also in his capacity as a presenter, trainer and coach on business development topics. Peter 's considerable knowledge and experience of the UK, French and US markets has meant that he continues to be an invaluable resource for me and others he works with.
