Testimonials
“We engaged Dave to support us in a culture transformation exercise as we transitioned from a founder-based organization to a private equity backed, CEO led organization. We had a need and desire to simplify and elevate how we spoke about our purpose, our culture, and create positive momentum around what makes us special as an organization and how we engaged our team members. Dave was a great partner to help us understand our current state organizational health framework, execute a cultural assessment, and helped our leadership team reimagine our keystones of culture. This body of work allowed us to elevate how we speak about and live our culture and was a natural starting point to support our growth journey. I would highly recommend Dave to any organization looking to go through a similar exercise.”
Letha Kunshier, Chief People Officer
“We needed a confidential, comprehensive culture assessment of our entire hospital system, and Dave and his team came in with a solid, professional approach to gaining keen insights into where our current culture sat on his key culture dimensions. He facilitated an inclusive process enabling us to design a stronger, future-desired culture that has carried us to even greater heights. I strongly recommend Dave, his approach and methodology, and would never hesitate to partner with him again in the future when we need to take a deep look into our organization, and what is holding us back from creating a safe and inclusive culture.”

“As an executive coach, Dave has a unique ability to create a calm, safe and inclusive space for me to grow and develop as a leader. His use of assessments to provide me with a comprehensive view into my strengths and areas of development was invaluable in helping me create a customized development plan that formed the roadmap for me to take on some of the trickiest challenges I have ever faced as a leader in my organization. I am a better leader based on our coaching partnership.”

“Dave represents the rare blend of global experience, cross-cultural competence, and organizational culture expertise to help organizations build the kind of high-performance cultures that is so critical to winning on the global stage. He has worked at all three levels of talent and organizational improvement, from executive coaching for our senior leaders, to top-team alignment for our global teams, as well as influencing the kind of culture change we needed to achieve our vision and strategy, while honoring our mission and values.”

“We have had the privilege of working with Dave at various consulting firms where he has been a senior partner/advisor, and his level of professionalism, keen insight and unique approach and methodology created incredible value for our organization to address our most challenging issues.”
VP-Leadership Development & OD
“We had a group of leaders who individually, were amazing, but together, couldn’t get out of each others’ way. Through confidential, diagnostic interviews, and the use of a teams assessment, Dave was able to put up a mirror on this team’s greatest strengths as well as key headwinds blocking them from achieving their goals and deliverables. The results were amazing, as this team hit the “reset button” and were able to create team norms that unlocked their potential.”
