Luciana spent the last 16 years building some of the best-known brands in the beauty and food and delivering strong commercial results.

Throughout her career, Luciana has successfully launched new products and brands, turned around troubled businesses and prepared successful ones for future challenges. She has proudly led high-performing cross-functional teams, taking an active role in recruiting and developing talent.

Outside of work, when she is not dragging her kids to the beach in Cascais, you can find Luciana at a yoga class or pursuing her quest to find the best facial on the block.

David Clayton started his career tending bars in South Beach, Miami and in the Hamptons, where client-centricity is crucial. He went on to lead commercial teams at The Guardian, selling partnerships to the likes of Google, IDEO, Vodafone and the United Nations and the Guardian Media Academy, the brand’s first foray into training.

In 2011, David founded True & North – with one question in mind: “How can we give busy people the tools to master their client relationships?”

When he is not delivering Workshops across the Globe David is hunting for the best beaches to take his board out for a surf.
