Dave is the host and founder of Coaching for Leaders, a top-rated management podcast downloaded 25 million times. With more than 15 years of prior leadership at Dale Carnegie and a thriving, global leadership academy, he help leaders discover practical wisdom, build meaningful relationships, and create movement for genuine results. Apple Podcasts currently lists Coaching for Leaders as the #1 search result for management in the United States.
He's also founder of the Coaching for Leaders Academy, an intensive, leadership development cohort. The Academy is an intimate group of managers, executives, and business owners who work personally with Dave and other participant leaders to develop their leadership excellence -- and empower each other through global relationship building.
Dave's credentials include a doctoral degree in organizational leadership from Pepperdine University, several international business leadership awards from Dale Carnegie, and graduation from Coach U. He serves on the board of the Global Center for Women & Justice at Vanguard University and also co-hosts the Ending Human Trafficking podcast with longtime friend, Sandie Morgan.
Like most people, he's never had it all figured out. He's been passed up for promotions, failed at launching his first business, and still fights through an occasional fear of speaking to people.
