David Bryon

bmibaby.com was a popular choice for flying from East Midlands and Birmingham airports to various destinations around the UK and Europe. As a motivational business speaker, Byron draws from his time at the helm there, originally as Commercial Director then Managing Director – to deliver humorous stories and anecdotes to appreciative audiences.

What makes David’s talks so interesting is that he delivers the perfect mix of eyebrow-raising tales of what goes on behind the scenes when running an airline – either onboard the aircraft or at the check-in desks – with insightful advice on how to develop a successful business (bmibaby.com achieved £400m turnover in four years) by delivering the highest levels of leadership and customer service.

Organisations that have commissioned David Byron as their motivational speaker include Deutsche Bank, HSBC, BP, Kuwait’s Government, Chevron, Sun MicroSystems, Accenture and Barclays Bank. A former host of his own television talk show in the USA, David is also in demand on British TV and radio, with regular appearances on BBC News, BBC Radio 2, BBC Radio 5 Live and Sky News.

We loved having you – thank you for providing such great entertainment as well as running the awards part of the show for us. You made sure that we finished on time and were the perfect host for last night. So a very big thank you from all of us, you really did a terrific job. - Antonia Carew, Corporate Events Manager, IHS Jane’s International Awards, Amsterdam 2011
