As a member of one of the Mastermind Groups I run, Dave has always applied his knowledge, experience and imagination to helping others solve their biggest challenges. I am so pleased to know him and recommend him highly.“
He’s a strategic and futuristic thinker

If you want someone who will help you grow as a leader, you cannot do better than hiring him!“
Dave is a gifted executive coach
“I had the pleasure of working with Dave on an executive team for a couple of years. His ability to identify the “big rocks” in a situation, fashion the best “next steps” and marshal the efforts of a team to execute are the best I have seen. Dave is a gifted executive coach who makes his clients more productive, helps them stay focused on their highest priority tasks and probably most importantly, gives them a good sounding board for the important decisions they must make. There is no one I could recommend more heartily than David Pennington.”
