What happens when a safari guide enters The Apprentice? Joe Phillips, the self-proclaimed James Bond of the Jungle, joins me on Beyond the Boardroom to talk about his wildest experiences-from being charged by elephants to dealing with the pressure of Lord Sugar's boardroom.
We dive into:
🔹 The Apprentice experience-what really goes on behind the scenes
🔹 Facing real danger-why the boardroom didn't scare him
🔹 The animal encounter that made him faint
🔹 How his love for nature led to a unique career path
🔹 The weirdest fan requests he's ever received
💬 What's the wildest thing you'd do for success? Drop your thoughts in the comments.
Note for clarification: Buffalo are one of the most dangerous animals in Africa, responsible for killing more big-game hunters than any other species.
