David Dejewski

Managing Director / Host of the M&A Source Podcast

David Dejewski is the host of the M&A Source Podcast and a business leader with a diverse background in media, communications, and strategic leadership, including significant contributions to the U.S. Department of Defense. David’s media journey began in 1994 when he produced Images and Words, the Other Side of D.U.I., a 22-minute film aimed at educating young people about the dangers of drinking and driving. Supported by organizations like the US Navy and the College of Charleston, the project exemplified his early commitment to impactful communication.

David has since produced three successful podcast programs, the first of which launched in 2005 to address military healthcare leaders globally while serving as the Chief for Defense Business Transformation in the Military Healthcare System. During his tenure, he led efforts to establish a business transformation process that reviewed over $1 billion in investments, sending $200 million back to the Treasury due to redundancies or inefficiencies. David’s role was critical in aligning business IT investments with enterprise architecture, ensuring compliance, and delivering results that saved taxpayer dollars. His second podcast expanded his reach to a global audience as chair of a 501(c)(3) organization, where the show still receives hundreds of monthly downloads.

In his current role as Managing Director at Transworld Business Advisors, David specializes in problem-solving, business sales, M&A, and franchising for small and mid-market companies. His leadership extends to the M&A Source, where he serves as Committee Chair for the Podcast and Webinars Committee. David took over hosting duties for the M&A Source Podcast in 2023, continuing to foster conversations that matter across the M&A profession.

"Communication is the most underestimated and commonly undervalued superpower we have," David says. "This show helps us carry on conversations that matter between conferences, raising the bar for our profession. If our conferences are our bonfires, our podcast and webinars are our little campfires, where we strengthen our tribe of M&A professionals around the world."
