My story

Why I left a good career to do this work.

The role with the most impact on people is the one we prepare for least.

For most professions, we require a degree, an education, years of study. But leadership? You'll figure that out, we assume. And that's exactly where it so often goes wrong in practice.

Everyone has had a bad manager at some point, and knows how that feels. But also how much a good one does, someone who moves you forward and brings out the best in you.

Ten years of leading taught me how big that difference is. And how much better, easier, and more enjoyable the work becomes once you truly master it. Helping people do exactly that is what gives me energy every day. That's why I left my management role and chose this work fully.

What clients say

Trusted by leaders who've been where you are.

Recently I worked with David on a range of leadership challenges, and I'm very satisfied with the support and help he has given me.

Sonja Kester
Director Marketplace @ Maxeda

At the start I said I wanted a Sherpa on my path to becoming a better leader. David has been the best Sherpa I could have hoped for. His knowledge, support and empathy helped me uncover values and tools I'd been searching for for years.

David helped me enormously in my leadership journey. Highly recommended for leaders who want to grow.
