Dr Philip Stiles developed the Global Human Resource Research Alliance, a research group involving 30 companies worldwide. The project represents the most comprehensive worldwide research study in the subject.

He was involved in research for the Higgs Review on the Effectiveness of Non-Executive Directors, and he is also involved in examining the nature of succession within companies, carried out in collaboration with an international headhunting organisation. He consults to a number of organisations in both the private and public sector.
