Clarity: The Insight

I led teams whilst life was falling apart. Delivered transformations whilst facing my own demons. Smiled in meetings after crying in toilets.

I thought it was the pressure and the circumstances causing it, but it wasn't. It was the unrelenting chatter in my own head.

What I discovered was the inside-out nature of human experience - that my struggle wasn't caused by the circumstances themselves, but by my thinking about them. When I stopped fighting reality, clarity, emerged. It showed me there's wisdom beyond all the chatter, always there, always available.

The process was simple:
• Have a thought → let it pass
• Mind clears → awareness returns
• Presence shows up → resourcefulness arises

The same understanding that helped me survive personal challenges also transformed how I worked with leadership teams and organisations. Not because I learned something new. Because I remembered what I already had.

About

With over 18 years leading People & Culture functions at brands such as the NRMA, Westpac, Ventia, and Navitas, I've worked closely with senior executives to deliver transformations that achieve measurable business impact. Along the way, I've turned around struggling teams, led digital HR innovations and guided leaders through complex change.

The most profound transformations I’ve experienced have been both personal and professional. Through navigating through these struggles, I discovered that people aren't "resources" to be managed. They're resourceful humans who naturally rise when the unrelenting mental chatter softens.

Now, I speak with leaders about what it really means to be human in business - conversations about clarity, connection and the capacity we already have when we stop overcomplicating things.

Turning Points

ELIZABETH MAGILL

Group Head of Industrial Relations

"If you're looking for a partner who will tell you comfortable half-truths and offer generic strategies, David isn't your person. But if you want someone who will see your full potential, challenge you with compassion and guide you to insights that transform both your leadership and your life - you couldn't find anyone better."

Alison Bucknall

Senior HR Leader, Chamberlain Group

"Working with David has been nothing short of life-changing. What sets him apart is his unique ability to blend deep emotional intelligence with genuine listening. He holds unwavering, high expectations—challenging me with clarity and purpose, never allowing me to settle for less than my full potential."


Jason May

Founder, Bawamarra Cultural Services

"What makes David an extraordinary speaker is his ability to help an entire audience see what's already there but obscured by complexity. He helped our team recognise what actually mattered — and that fundamental shift has transformed how we lead ourselves and our business. His talks aren't about adding more; they're about seeing clearer."
