In the mid 90’s David Sloly started his dream job as a radio journalist, but 5 hours later he was fired. It turned out to be his big break!

Entrepreneur, business mentor and story evangelist, David has built an exciting career out of storytelling, which has taken him around the world and into the boardrooms of Google, Virgin and Dell to help them reconnect with their purpose.

David traces his passion for storytelling back to his early days travelling, and later as a journalist, where he met some ordinary people with extraordinary tales to tell.

In 2013 he began to analyse the essential elements required to create an authentic story and in 2015 released his book ‘Why You Need a Business Story and How To Create It’ that includes a unique five-step process to enable anyone to create stories.

David Sloly is now a business partner at the B2B technology marketing agency HarveyDavid that specialises in marketing automation, content creation and social media marketing.
