Senior🎓
Top SchoolDavid Liddle is a transformational people and culture leader, founder and CEO with over two decades building award-winning HR, mediation and leadership businesses that blend restorative justice, behavioural science and systems thinking. Named the #1 HR Most Influential Thinker in 2025 and featured on the Thinkers50 Radar, he created the widely adopted Resolution Framework™ and the People and Culture Operating Model™ used by major organisations worldwide. An accomplished author and speaker, his work bridges community-level restorative practice—originating from pioneering mediation programmes in the 1990s—with modern HR tech through platforms like Apaxio®.

Outside of boardrooms he remains hands-on—cycling, parenting three children and maintaining a microcontroller hobby that hints at a practical, tinkering curiosity beneath his strategic remit.
