Testimonials

Dave has coached me for the last several years and his contribution has definitely grown the business. He helps define priorities and then determine how to engage the team so that the organization acts with clarity and focus. Dave is a masterful interpreter of the energy that drives me and in turn drives the company. I consider Dave to be a key partner in my business.

We have been thoroughly impressed with Dave’s ability to provide timely and insightful facilitation to our leadership team. Over the last few years, we have utilized Dave’s skills to train leaders in customer service; core leadership essentials; and most recently, guidance in managing teams in a virtual environment.

Dave brings practical business experience to his clients, and I would not hesitate to recommend him as a highly effective facilitator.

David has proven to be an exceptional business coach during my time spent with him. He has a wealth of real-world corporate experience, which enables him to offer informed opinion and analytical commentary on how to navigate difficult business decisions, while at the same time being able to provide significant insight into driving performance and engagement in my area of responsibility. David has proven to be a reliable, honest and trustworthy coach who has provided me with a new perspective on how to approach challenges and opportunities.

I recommend Dave Town, of Your Leadership Matters, as a keynote speaker and course leader. Dave presented a talk on “Difficult Dialogues” to 200 people at our Annual General Meeting in Winnipeg, and he conducted two smaller workshops. He combined a highly engaging presentation style with excellent, relevant content. Participant feedback was extremely high. And as organizer I was delighted.
