"Working with David is great. It's easy, he's 100% authentic in his delivery, he has great energy, and I trust him completely. He's approachable and he's fun. We were able to explore EQ together with the whole department! It not only helped open the door to the EQ world to everyone, but it was practical and helped us be a stronger team that can help each other emotionally as well. I give David a 10."

The Leadership Foundry
Where Managers Forge Themselves Into Leaders, Online.
Created with Brandon Smith and Randy Hain
Most managers never get a chance to get an MBA, get coaching, or get executive-level leadership tools. The Leadership Foundry changes that. Your managers get access to Executive-MBA instructors, veteran coaches, and a massive online video library of leadership content on the desktop or phone. Because it happens entirely online, you can get top training and coaching for rates that make it accessible to all the managers that need it.
- It's practical - every video includes multiple tools that can get plugged into the calendar, so the training is used immediately
- It's personal - every participant gets either group or individual coaching so their learning really sticks and creates change
- It's time-sensitive - watch videos on the go, and find the advice you need when you need it
"Hi David, I just wanted to reach out and say thank you! The video you made inspired me so much. I’ve been stuck and thinking too much, and your advice was the most insightful so far in this process. So for that I am grateful and I wanted to thank you deeply."

Coaching-Style Leaders And Teams
Learn the Art of Coaching To Develop Your Team, Improve Performance, And Solve Problems
Coaching is one of the most important skills for any leader. Leaders can use coaching or a coaching-style in almost every leadership scenario to create better outcomes. Coaching is about helping someone develop their own answers which leads to more creativity, accountability, improvement, and ownership. Leaders that model coaching also teach their teams to coach. There is a reason every pro athlete has a coach. If we want high performance, we need coaching.
"David has a unique ability to invoke emotions in people, always knowing the right questions to ask. His ability to listen and understand, then suggest techniques based on that knowledge is above-and-beyond anything I've experienced with other coaches. I feel very thankful to have worked with David and consider him to be an integral part of my learning and development, both in my career and my personal life."
