About
We ran them from the inside.
TEMPLE 22 is a boutique advisory practice founded by David F. Conroy. He did not advise these institutions from the outside. He ran their biggest revenue engines from the inside, and built the strategic account organizations most firms are still trying to build: the coverage models, the account discipline, and the teams that beat plan year after year at the most demanding names in financial services.
The practice
Small on purpose.
Senior people do the work. There is no pyramid, no analyst bench, and no partner whose name is on the cover and nowhere else. Engagements are led by David F. Conroy, and the practice takes on only as many as can be run that way.
The founder
-
The operator
Ran global revenue orgs at Western Union, Fiserv, JPMorgan, Deutsche Bank, Citi and Standard Chartered. He owned the number. He did not narrate it.
-
The team builder
Sponsored the Leading Women talent program and mentored high school students for over a decade. He builds teams that last, and culture is part of the edge.

Beyond the work
Outside the commercial work, David gives his time to a number of nonprofits. The contribution is the same one he makes to clients: commercial judgment, applied to organisations that rarely have access to it.
The founder’s record, in five numbers
- $800M Citi
- +75% Deutsche Bank
- $1.5B JPMorgan
- $1.7B Fiserv
- 70% Western Union

The name
TEMPLE 22 is a name that nods to a legacy.
Deliberately unexplained. The line stays as-is unless David wants to say more, and if he does, it should be in his own words rather than edited.
