David’s work is also influenced and shaped by his long-standing study and practice of Aikido and Zen Meditation, which brings a rich energy of wisdom and aliveness to his facilitation, making mindfulness accessible for leaders in the 21st century. He takes a leading role in our mindfulness offerings.
Before starting his coaching practice, David specialized in developing software teams and software companies – soon recognizing that often what held teams back was not the lack of intelligence and knowledge, but the quality of the working relationships. Often finding the environments challenging, he was moved and inspired by the transformation individuals and teams underwent with the application of coaching tools and the positive impact that relationships founded on trust and respect have on the culture and profitability of an organization.
Inspired by this experience, he co-founded a software company that was focused on the leadership development of the employees with a culture that was relational and trust-based. Through this work, David became committed to the empowering belief that through cultivating our inner landscape and mindsets, leadership is available to all: we can make magic and transformation happen in the workplace.
Alongside his work with Global Warriors, David works internationally with a range of organizations: finance, creative agencies, technology, small & medium enterprises, charities, and social enterprises. He also hosts a weekly Mindfulness Café, a virtual meditation practice space, and co-hosts a bi-weekly podcast: The Inside Job.
David lives on the south coast of England. He loves reading; swimming in the sea; spin classes; playing the guitar and walking, especially with his partner, friends, and his doggy companion.
