He was a true professional joy to work with throughout it all. The delivery itself was fantastic, by my own opinion plus rave reviews from our audience and members. Dave has a unique ability to captivate a crowd in a way that keeps them engaged, pondering, and eager to learn more.

Personally, I think it's because he resonates with our feelings as human beings FIRST, then applies the leadership and business lessons second. He just gets it. - Kristin D. Appelman, IABC.
