Work History: David is the President and the CEO of Yum Brands - a fortune 500 company. Previously, he was employed in Pizza Hut as Senior Vice President of Marketing from 1986 to 1990. From 1990 to 1992, he worked as the Executive Vice President of Pepsi. He was offered the post of the COO (Chief Operating Officer) of Pepsi in 1992. By 1994, he joined KFC (Kentucky Fried Chicken) as the President and the CEO. He had also acted as the Vice Chairperson, President and CEO of Tricon Global Restaurants. He was offered the post of the President and CEO of Yum Brands by 2002.
Education: David graduated in BA from the University of Missouri in 1974.
Bio: Yum Brands operates five independent restaurants that primarily act as fast food franchises. These five restaurants include A&W All-American Food, Pizza Hut, KFC, Long John's Silver and Taco Bell. One must consider the fact that operating five restaurants that have countless subsidiaries across the country is no easy feat. Yet, by utilizing a systematic approach along with suitable advertising strategies, David could tweak the average earnings of Yum Brands to $24 billion (2002). Recently, the company has been moving into some high-end social network advertising as well, making it a true pioneer for such a large corporation.
David had a passion for fast food ever since his days as an advertiser. According to many analysts, David could assimilate the various business tactics in a comprehensive manner. He started to prove his merits from a very early stage. He had to face a multitude of problems from all sectors and these were resolved with ample inputs from Andy Pearson (the then CEO of Tricon Global Restaurants). David also planned and acted in such manners to boost the aggressiveness among the five restaurants owned by Yum Brands. That strategy ultimately worked effectively.
David concerted on increasing consciousness among the masses on domestic and international scales. On countless occasions, he was roped in order to deliver personalized speeches to job holders with the primary intention of boosting their morale. The levels of obligation began to surge among the employees. The proficiency that was displayed by him to give the company that much needed push is legendary.
