About Bob Phillips
Bob Phillips is a native Texan who began his career in the Texas Tourism Industry at the early age of 12, when he worked at one of Texas’ original tourist attractions, Aquarena Springs in San Marcos. Over his ten years working there, his jobs ranged from sweeping up cigarette butts, to glass bottom boat operator, to underwater gardener, to underwater clown. And finally, the highlight! Bob had the dubious honor of working with Ralph, the Famous Swimming Pig and the true star of Aquarena Springs!
Bob moved to the Dallas/Fort Worth area and began his successful career as Associate Director of the Irving Convention and Visitors Bureau.
Bob has served twice as chair of the Dallas/Fort Worth Area Tourism Council, past chair of the Texas Travel Industry Association, past chair of the Advisory Committee of the Governor’s Office of Tourism, and he was also elected by fellow Texans as a delegate to the first ever, White House Conference on Tourism. He served as Executive Director of the Grapevine Convention and Visitors Bureau, next as Vice President of Marketing and later as President for Classic Attractions, Inc, a company with four tourist attractions in two major Texas cities, and then as Director of Visit Addison.
Bob is now devoting his time to doing what he enjoys most—–helping organizations become more successful. His company, “Improving Your Success”, helps organizations dramatically improve their employee engagement, teamwork, employee retention, customer service, and morale through new, fun, innovative, and exciting techniques.
He also enjoys spending time with his beautiful wife of 33 years, Susan.
