About
My work as a training consultant is based around communications, broadcasting and business skills.
I am a highly experienced broadcaster and manager, involved in radio and online production for more than 30 years, mostly with the BBC World Service and local radio. I've been all around the world, working with broadcasters from Eastern Europe, the Far East, Africa and the Caribbean.
I set up David Thomas Media Ltd to work with freelancers in the creative industries who would rather hide under the duvet than open a spreadsheet, or who would run a mile rather than go to a 'networking opportunity'.
Since 2005 I have worked with thousands of freelancers and staff setting up on their own, or going through redundancy. My aim is to help them develop their organisational skills, communicate more effectively and not lose sight of the things they love about their work.
