David Culley

I have a passion for professional education and development! For 15 years I’ve enjoyed supporting people with their continuing professional development by designing teaching programmes, authoring content and providing training face-to-face and online.

My technical expertise in business strategy and management, financial management and business technology is founded on my fellowships of the Association of Chartered Certified Accountants and the Institute of Leadership & Management. This expertise is enhanced by my career as a business leader and continues to be nourished by research into how these fields are evolving in the modern business environment.

Current research areas include big data, Artificial Intelligence and the future of the accountancy profession. In 2020, I published a report into the impact of digital technology on accountants and finance professionals: People Will Be the Next Big Thing. I enjoy two aspects of my work in particular: Unpacking complicated concepts to make them more accessible to learners. Providing a real-life, practical context so that learners can apply concepts to their everyday lives.
