A warm welcome!
I am David, a senior business development consultant with over 20 years of experience in the German and European professional services and legal industry. An avid diversity advocate, speaker, coach and author. I am based in Bavaria, near Munich.
What I love doing
Business development and strategic marketing for professional services firms
With my managerial business development experience in the professional services sector, I can help you grow your business, better understand your clients and market your capabilities nationally and internationally.
Diversity and inclusion
In the DI space I focus on various facets around the business case and the successful implementation of diversity and inclusion matters, with an emphasis on LGBT+ and in particular transidentity in the workplace.
