Bio

A former marketing and advertising executive with over 30 years of experience as an organizational & change consultant and coach, David supports leaders to uncover their personal and organizational purpose and values and leverage them for personal and professional growth. He helps leaders discover and overcome “blind spots” in their leadership perspective as well as uncover hidden strengths and capabilities.

David is masterful in helping cultivate two key characteristics of great leaders: a powerful sense of compassion for themselves and a deep empathy for others. In most situations where a leader has reached out for coaching, they know that the issues and challenges they are facing reach into the greater organization that surrounds them. That is why a coach like David, with a rich background in organizational & change consulting and leadership coaching, can help create comprehensive, transformative change.
