I came to the sessions hoping for some guidance on my professional life and left with a framework to both improve it and my personal life also. Through a number of the conversations, we were able to establish a framework for improving some problem areas which has inspired a confidence I previously didn't know I was lacking. These sessions have provided some of the largest impact, well beyond anything I had hoped for going in, and I couldn’t speak highly enough of how much Dave has helped me.
Dave is an excellent coach. Great listening skills and tries to understand your perspective. Stating the problems you've identified in ways that help push you to create and pursue solutions. He helped me identify key problems and paths of execution. Due to big changes in my company, I found myself reporting into an SVP level manager. From Dave's training I was prepared to report into a high producing executive. His familiarity with SRE and Tech is extremely helpful as I found him coaching and mentoring me through problems and solutions.
I got tremendous value from my coaching sessions with Dave. It was very clear to me from the start that he was there to listen and understand what my specific goals were, and what I was trying to get from the program. Dave did not take a prescriptive route, but instead guided me towards things that he felt would help me in my journey. The sessions gave me both the professional guidance I was looking for, as well as meaningful insights into leadership styles that were additive to my own perspectives.
