Praise for Dave's Current Book The Superperforming CEO: Liberating the Promise Within

Leaders of organizations have a responsibility to read this book!” - John Casey, founder and former Chairman and CEO, CEO Netweavers

Edwards Deming, Peter Drucker, Robert Greenleaf, and a number of outstanding business leaders of today to educate the reader on the skills and competencies needed to survive and prosper in the new normal environment of the 21st century. Congratulations to Dave for another significant addition to the list of must-reads for today’s Business Leaders.” – John Jordan, Retired Executive, Halliburton
