David Barnett is a keynote speaker, business owner, and service-culture strategist who helps organizations turn exceptional service into a competitive advantage.

A fourth-generation hairdresser with more than three decades of global experience, David has built and scaled service-driven businesses across multiple industries. His work spans twelve countries and is grounded not in theory, but in real-world moments where leadership, presence, and service intersect.

David is also a competitive Toastmasters speaker, bringing a high level of structure, intentionality, and storytelling craft to every keynote. His presentations are known for blending practical frameworks with deeply human stories that resonate long after the event ends.

Rather than focusing on scripts or policies, David shows leaders and teams how exceptional service is delivered in the moment — through awareness, trust, and intentional leadership. Audiences leave with a clear framework they can apply immediately, and a renewed sense of responsibility for the moments that matter most.

David speaks to leadership teams, conferences, and service-driven organizations across hospitality, healthcare, retail, and corporate environments.
