Dave's programs allowed me to reflect on where I was in my own career during my recovery. His wealth of knowledge , quick witted humor, sincere empathy and positive attitude instatnly helped lift me up out of the depths of hopelessness that anyone who has been handed a devastating diagnosis would face.

“'Nailed it' was the message I sent Dave after the presentation I had just given in Rome. I have been speaking on and off for 20 years but that didn't stop me engaging with Dave a few weeks ago - I knew he could help me improve and I wanted to be better. Rome was coming up and I had a chance to make a big impression - I only had time for a couple of sessions with Dave and he made a huge difference. I still over tinkered with my content in the final few days of preparation but, by following Dave advice - I knew the content was great and I was confident. 90 minutes was set aside for me in Rome - I was speaking about the impact of social media in the B2B space with a focus on LinkedIn. Within a minute of coming off stage I already had confirmed future business. What will I be like when I've been working with Dave a bit longer? Only time will tell but I've already raised my personal bar - I know they type of audience I want to address and the size of organisations to have as clients. Dave has sent my confidence and self belief rocketing. ”

I thought to myself that I should get him one day to speak at the Dubai Business Breakfast, a free knowledge sharing and collaborative platform, which I have been operating since 2011. As Dave is a busy person I had to wait some time and finally got the opportunity on 26 Jul 2017.

He explained to our members the importance of public speaking and how it would help us in our professional growth. Thank you Dave for the wisdom imparted to us.”
