About
Discover David Otudeko and the vision behind Maison de Madaci, where creativity, thought leadership, and style intersect
Turning Experience into Ideas and Action
Maison de Madaci is the independent platform I created to develop and share my ideas through writing, speaking and creative projects. My experience informs what I explore, but my curiosity takes me beyond it, into questions about people, organisations and the wider world. It is also a home for selected external engagements, undertaken in a personal capacity and subject to conflict-of-interest checks.

Who is David Otudeko
I’m David Otudeko, an award-winning author, speaker and senior financial-services leader. I am the founder of Maison de Madaci, and this is where my professional journey, creative thinking, and personal philosophy converge. With experience spanning consultancy, banking, insurance, risk management, regulation, governance, and DEI, I have spent decades understanding how systems work, how people navigate them, and where meaningful change is possible.
A Personal Approach
Beyond professional experience, I am driven by curiosity and reflection. I enjoy exploring mythology and history, reading widely, and thinking about the ideas and aesthetics that shape culture today. These interests inform how I write, engage with audiences, and develop new projects.
Join the Journey
I see Maison de Madaci as more than a platform; it is a space for connection, learning, and creativity. Explore my books, follow my thought leadership, or get in touch about speaking, collaboration or other selected external engagements.
