Leadership Consultant & Coach

David Forster

David has had a career spanning over 40 years where his varied postings have included founder and CEO of a VC backed startup (10 years) to GM of an acquired company at a large global MNC (3 years). From a professional French horn player playing Broadway shows (20+ years) to a service executive at two different MNCs (18 years) his career has been as varied as it is long.

The three constants in those 40+ years is 1) Always being a manager of people (his core competency leading anywhere from 2 to 500 people) 2) A core belief that most of the work of managing a team is done through 1:1s or small group meetings, and 3) Resolutely convinced and convicted that the heavy lifting of all professional jobs is based on R(elationships) and C(ommunications) – whether playing a Mahler symphony in an orchestra, leading a field service team, or managing a modern omni media contact center it all comes down to R & C (mainly through 1:1s) to grow and ultimately reach success.

David has a BS in Electrical Engineering from the University of Rochester earning high distinction by being a winner in his school’s undergraduate research competition and having been published in a referred technical journal. During his VC backed startup tenure he was also a “visiting entrepreneur” for eight years at the Harvard Business School as well as participating in writing an HBS business case about his startup that is still taught in 2nd year marketing classes at business schools around the world.
