Biography

David Bolchover is an internationally published author. His latest book is
Digging Deep, which recounts the untold stories of eleven Jewish international
footballers from across Europe – icons one minute, and marked for
extermination the next.

Digging Deep follows on from the success of his previous book, The Greatest
Comeback, a biography of the great Jewish football coach and Holocaust
survivor Béla Guttmann. The title was shortlisted for the William Hill Sports
Book of the Year and has been translated into several languages.

David has also written three business books, the latest being Pay Check: Are
Top Earners Really Worth It? His first book was the international best-seller
The 90-Minute Manager, which looks at the lessons that business managers
can learn from football managers.

His second book, The Living Dead, counters the orthodoxy which holds that a
large number of office workers are overworked and stressed.

David has also written numerous op-eds and articles for various publications,
including The Times, The Financial Times, The Telegraph, The Guardian and The
Sunday Times.

He has given presentation to many companies and conferences on the subject
of one of his books, as well as on a range of other topics relating to business
and management. He has been interviewed regularly on TV and radio,
including appearances on BBC TV (Breakfast and Newsnight), Sky News, CNN,
BBC Radio Five Live, and BBC Radio Four (The Today Programme, PM and The
World Tonight). He appeared as a witness at the Parliamentary Commission on
Banking Standards on the subject of remuneration.

As well as his own bylined work, David also assists several leading management
consultancies, and other major companies, with their written insights into the
business world.

Before his writing career, David worked for twelve years in the international
insurance industry. He has an MBA (Finance) from Bayes Business School, and
a Master’s degree from the London School of Economics.
