"Looking back over the plan and seeing how many of the goals I hit and grew as a result was quite rewarding and I am deeply grateful for David's role in this growth. David was able to help me keep the big picture in mind while also providing me more tactical coaching and communication advice in sessions where I just needed help working through a problem at hand. His ability to put on different hats and provide the guidance and coaching I needed helped me grow as a leader."

"Before picking David as my executive coach, I interviewed five coaches and landed on selecting David due to his approach, demeanor, experience, listening and interpretation abilities along with this track record. David is a consummate professional in this area and has a wealth of training, certifications and experience which other coaches did not possess. I have been through numerous coaches in my career and David has absolutely been at the pinnacle in terms of success criteria and continuous consistent follow ups to ensure I have benefited from his learnings. If you're looking for an executive leadership coach, I cannot recommend David highly enough."

"I can attest to David’s professionalism and expertise as an executive coach and mentor. I would recommend David to anyone looking to improve their organization and to get the most out of their leadership team." 

"I was introduced to David Spungin by my mentor. David gave me a different point of view. With his help, I was able to recognize where I could improve myself. I found balance in my work and home life. With David as my executive coach, I have extensively changed my leadership approach. I now see myself more objectively. In the past, a distorted self-image prevented me from identifying areas that warranted improvement—a major stumbling block in my leadership growth and development. David quickly uncovered the problem and provided me the insights/tools I needed to understand how others perceive me. With my newly honed skills, I can adjust my actions and modify my behaviors for increasingly positive results. These indispensable lessons will serve me well as I continue to climb the leadership ladder. My only regret is, I wish I had found David earlier in my career."

"David is an excellent coach and quickly became a friend. He was committed to taking my leadership to the next level, working with me to establish tangible goals, enhance strengths and capitalize on opportunities to improve. I highly recommend David for anyone seeking to align their leaderships skills with the mind as well as the heart. He will take you and your team to the next level."

"David was an exceptional coach. We opened each bi-weekly session as if it was a continuous discussion throughout the 6-month process. David helped me understand my strengths and areas of improvement. From there we crafted a detailed plan focusing on multiple areas to improve team building and relationship building. This process has increased my confidence in my leadership abilities.I continue to use the techniques and approaches David coached me through. I highly recommend David."
