IT TAKES a lot to get 100 students to turn up at 6pm, sit
still, stop fiddling with their phones and engage with a forty-something bloke
standing at the front of a lecture theatre.
Sadly, pure mathematics rules me out on age grounds, so step
forward David Davies, magazine industry guru, college buddy of Jon - The Men Who Stare at Goats - Ronson
and now we find out all-round great guy.
Davies (pictured right looking inscrutable!) captivated
students at Southampton Solent University with his tale of Brummie Boy Dun Good
and sent them home salivating at the thought of a £200,000 job, making a
Top 10 single and dining out with the great and the good – and George Michael.
Like a lot of us he’s had his lucky breaks, but you don’t
get to be a big cheese at Grazia, heat, FHM and Q without having something
going for you.
He was self-effacing to a fault, telling students that he
wasn’t the brightest or best but he did share his ‘Six easy tips to build a successful
career in the media’.
Among the barrage of superb advice a couple of ideas had the
most resonance for me.
- Do anything you can to work with people better than you
- Don’t out-stay your welcome
- Have fun…while you can
But more than anything I hope they realise that simply being a nice person - engaging, personable, lively and fun - goes a long way too. It certainly hasn't done David Davies any harm.
