David expertly guided us through every phase of the process and I believe we will be a significantly improved board in the future, due to his leadership, knowledge, and efforts.

I had the pleasure to work with David on our recent Board Governance Self-Assessment. I could not have picked a better person to facilitate the process. David brought a wealth of experience to the project along with some pretty incredible assessment tools. He is practical, straight-forward and is a invaluable resource for “everything” in the world of association governance.

David provided an excellent executive transition session for our Board. He brought forward a number of key issues associated with the transition and guided the Board well through a facilitated session to clarify the role, develop communications protocols and begin the process of crafting an orientation program for the new executive. Throughout the process he was professional, courteous and knowledgeable.

David facilitated an excellent Board retreat, which was the first in our 70 year history. We had a few skeptical individuals going into the retreat, but it could not have been better. I attribute the positive feedback and success to your experience, expertise and facilitation skills. I am confident that our Board is better prepared to stay ahead of the rapid transformation of the industry we support.
