Keynote Speaker · Bestselling Author · Business Advisor
the kind of talks I love giving.
Thirty years of lessons from the trenches, distilled into stories your audience will still be quoting on Monday morning.
A Note From David
I've spent the last thirty years building, breaking, and rebuilding businesses, then writing down what actually worked.
My book The Naked Interview became a #1 bestseller because it said the quiet part out loud: most hiring is broken, and fixing it is simpler than people think. That's the through-line of everything I do. Take the messy reality of running a company, and hand you the framework I wish I'd had.
I've advised Fortune 50 teams, coached celebrity entrepreneurs, and helped more than 70,000 businesses across industries. The common thread? Leaders who needed someone to tell them the truth and give them a plan they could run on Monday.
These days, I lead the 728 Network for $1M+ founders, advise growth-stage teams through Jensen Business Advisory, and spend the rest of my time on stages telling stories that make leadership feel human again.
