David Fraser

Dr David Fraser pioneers new approaches to old problems. One such focus is our ability to relate successfully to each other, whether at work, at home or anywhere else. Some attention to this often neglected area can turn out to be a life-changing experience, as it was for David himself and is regularly for his clients. David has continued his study of this field over a number of years and through the highs and lows of professional and personal life.

David’s background is as a professional engineering manager and he has delivered major projects for government and private sector clients in complex and challenging situations and set up a number of entrepreneurial ventures. He is a company director and Chartered Engineer with a First Class Honours degree and a PhD from Glasgow University and an MBA from Strathclyde University. He is a qualified commercial mediator and a Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP) Master Practitioner and has trained with leading proponents of these disciplines.

David applies his unusual blend of expertise as a project manager and relationship skills specialist to support disparate groups working together in complex circumstances, including major collaborative projects and matters of national importance. He has also found the approach set out in his book Relationships Made Easy for the Business Professional to be extremely helpful in his home and family environment. David runs workshop and coaching programs for both organizations and individuals, both on-line and off-line.

With his breadth of knowledge, an engineer’s talent for organizing systematic and reliable solutions, and an ability to write and speak in an interesting, direct, and approachable way, David is well positioned to address the age-old problem of how to build effective relationships with other people.

David frequently contributes to print media, blogs and live radio.

David lives with his wife and three children in Glasgow, Scotland. When time permits, he sails among the islands of the West Coast of Scotland.
