"I enjoyed your presentation in Toronto in 2003. I have made use of the principles presented ever since." Capstone Careers "...was delighted to listen to your fresh and vibrant views on breaking the ice, meeting new people, networking… Thank you for waking up the blokes (in this male dominated industry) regarding the fact a hand shake is a way of communicating respect and therefore equal amounts of pressure, firmness and resolution should be applied to shaking the hand of a male and a female. AT LAST some males are starting to mention women in their seminars and acknowledge that we are just as influential, powerful and important..." - HomeLoan Services Pty Ltd "Dave did a WONDERFUL job for us in Tucson. We thoroughly enjoyed his presentation." - Cornerstone Information Systems
