]]>In this episode of Journeys by Talent Today, Gary Wills is joined by David Fenton, D365 Programme Director and Co-Founder of Blazetech, for an honest conversation about the twists, risks and lessons that have shaped his career.
David has spent more than 20 years working across IT, business change and digital transformation, moving from established organisations into consulting and, ultimately, entrepreneurship. He shares what he learned from 14 years at British Gas, why he chose to walk away from the security of a long-term career, and what pushed him to build something of his own.
The conversation goes well beyond job titles. David talks openly about leadership, imposter syndrome, handling pressure, building the right teams and why sometimes the biggest career opportunities come from being willing to start again.
Gary and David also explore the future of AI and what it really means for transformation teams. Through Blazetech and its Blaze Brain platform, David is working towards an approach he describes as AI-guided delivery, using AI to take on much of the delivery work while people remain responsible for validation, judgement and direction.
Away from technology, David talks about moving his family to Canada, his love of endurance running, raising money for charity and the personal meaning behind the phrase “giving up is not in the blood.”
