Donald Phinn

name Long story short… Don grew up in the Bronx, fell in love with the Yankees, music, sports and Manhattan and was fortunate enough to attend Bronx HS of Science. At 19 he jumped at the opportunity to work on a tuna boat out of San Diego. He liked the sea, sunshine, volleyball, surfing and girls so he stayed. Don lives and work in beautiful Coronado, California is happily married with 3 sons.

Don has been a California employment practices attorney for 27 yrs. He litigated cases for 17 years, figured out how ridiculous it all was and so he decided to help companies avoid destructive scenarios. Since then he has written 3 books on the workplace and presented to hundreds of CEO groups, associations, insurance and HR executives, and more. He loves nothing more than doing a great workshop. One with real take home value. One that they still talk about after the conference.

Don is the founder and President of HR That Works, a powerful program used by more than 3,000 companies nationwide and he is the co-editor of the prestigious EPLiC Journal published by IRMI. You can see one of Don’s EPLiC articles by clicking here.
