with David Kesby  


With a background of working with executive teams and coaches David has dedicated his career to explaining and exploring the 2 types of team we can be part of, the inter-dependent team who work together to achieve a common goal, vs extra-dependent teams who are learning together to develop a common practice. As founder of Organisational Coaching Hub David works with organisations and coaches to team them that there is no one way to team.
