Plan/Deliver a Critical Message

Before we started working together, I had a mixed back of insomnia, stress, anxiety, low energy, low motivation, and lack of focus. Through focus coaching, David helped me regain intellectual control and increase my awareness and reaction to triggers that used to get the better of me on ays when I didn't feel rested. His progressive yet practical approach, intellectual exploration, conversational style, and supportive understanding were just the right mix for me!

I've known David for over 15 years and I've consulted with him on numerous occasions to get me through important career decisions, challenging conversations with managers and touchy situations with colleagues or customers. David has the unique ability to see things from my perspective but, more importantly than that, he gets me to see my situation from a different vantage point -- it's there where I find clarity, ideas and solutions. David asks the insightful questions. The difficult questions. The ones that force you to act and do the right thing.

As a business and organizational leader, you are sometimes faced with very difficult decisions that go beyond your immediate team. When you really need to weigh out all the possible outcomes, pitfalls and benefits of a very large decision - such as a product pivot, a staff change, mergers, buyouts, difficult clients and the like, David Levin will become the best asset you have.

I can't tell you how refreshing it is to share the issue with a knowledgeable, experienced person like David to look at it from a really fresh angle and help yo find the clarity and focus you need to move forward in everyone's best possible interest.

If you're thinking about contacting David for a consult - don't hesitate. It's well worth it.

We hired David to speak at a lunch and learn with our organization. David TRULY DELIVERED to our group - even those with QBQ exposure learned how to apply QBQ more effectively. Everyone walked away inspired to put the QBQ to work and gave great feedback about the session. Great job David!!!

We had the pleasure of having David Levin present at our company’s fall conference on October 20, 2010. His “Don’t Just Talk, Be Heard!: The 10 Biggest Communication Mistakes…and How to Avoid Them!” program was spirited and packed with useful, valuable information for our 80 associates and Partners.

David was able to keep the participants engaged and interested for the entire session. His delivery style is upbeat and personable; he had everyone in the room laughing…and thinking about their communication styles and strategies and what better approaches they could take.

As a coordinator, finding an effective speaker typically seems like a challenge. Working with David was anything but a challenge. He really knows this topic and is able to share his knowledge in a way that allows people to really understand the importance of effective communication and, perhaps even more important, the detrimental impact of ineffective communication. I have heard nothing but glowing, positive remarks from our associates and Partners about the interactive workshop by David. And, we’ve had numerous people make changes as a result of this session. We are seeing positive impacts already!

We are looking forward to having our associates and Partners read David’s book and we look forward to a continued business relationship with David.

I worked with David back in 2006 when implementing QBQ. He is the co-author of QBQ with John Miller. David was extremely helpful to me. I was able to bounce ideas off him and get input on what worked and didn't work so I could better prepare for and facilitate the QBQ training. Between David and John, I had the support I needed to make this training program very successful for our organization.

I also utilized David's talents and support in a coaching capacity the latter part of 2009 to help me prepare for a big presentation I had to give at our annual Sales Conference in January of 2010. I worked with David again when preparing for my presentation at the 2011 Sales Conference. Both times David was able to help me pinpoint and focus on the key elements in my material so I could deliver a motivational and inspiring message. David's style is direct and candid. He was able to ask me questions that forced me to really think about what I wanted to leave the audience with in the short 20 minutes I was given. With his help, I was able to get the result I wanted and with good success.

I think David is very knowledgeable and experienced. He is very intuitive and creative. He helped me look at different ways to keep the audience engaged. He gave me the feedback I needed that really helped me prepare and, based on the feedback I received, successfully reach my goal with very effective communications.

Due to this successful partnership, we are going to team up with David again to bring the "Don't Just Talk, Be Heard" message to the rest of our organization. We firmly believe that focus on this is a key ingredient, effective communications, will "Elevate our Game" in 2011 and continue towards our goal of becoming a truly "Outstanding" organization
