DAVID KNIES

“To hell with circumstances. I create opportunities.” - Bruce Lee.

I’m on a mission to turn uncertainty into opportunity.

For 35 years, I've been deep in the trenches of the global Innovation Economy, building billion-dollar brands and launching category-creating products. I've helped shape new growth platforms for both industry titans and the startups gunning for their thrones.

At PA Consulting, I lead our global work across sports, fitness, wellness, and consumer health sectors, plus our Venture Studio – helping large organizations think and move like lean startups.

My work spans industries: tech, consumer products, sports, healthcare, biopharma, financial services, and luxury.

Over the past decade, I've helped nearly 1,000 leaders transform their careers in the Innovation Economy, guiding them from "What now?" to "What's next?

Now, through TURN Career Innovation and my Agents of Innovation podcast, I'm scaling these insights to help millions design their next chapter. This isn't just career advice – it's a proven playbook and system for professional reinvention.

Please don’t hesitate to reach out if I can do anything to help you!
