Hi there, I’m Dave

I’m passionate about creating a stronger understanding for modern brands and teams to be more authentic, more innovative, more agile, and more productive leading to new levels of performance and impact.

In Distributed working environments, and under added pressureS to COMPEte, Communication IS YOUR SECRET WEaPON or your greatest obstacle.

"I recently attended Dave’s talk and experienced him sharing the power of listening intelligence, amongst an eclectic turnout of leaders. I appreciated Dave’s delivery and style, and how he described the various listening habits we all have and why listening is inherently challenging.

This had me asking myself throughout the event, ‘Is the way I’m habitually listening, helping or hindering me?” That question in of itself is a key take away! I’m thankful I attended and left more educated on a topic that can make or break any organization."
