"Philip Merry has been a close colleague of mine for a few decades and has developed the Belbin team profiling business in Singapore and the region. It was Carl Jung the father of psychology who dubbed amazing coincidences as synchronicities, and Philip has always succeeded in turning coincidences into advantageous synchronicities. In The 9 Keys of Synchronicity, he combines Ph.D. field research, cutting edge scientific ideas and authentic stories, which make synchronicity abundantly clear and worthwhile to anyone who reads it, enabling them to thrive by taking advantage of life's divine coincidences."
—Dr Meredith Belbin, Creator of Belbin Team Profiling System, Global Teams Thought Leader, bestselling author of Multiple Books on Teams
