Testimonials

David Savage is deeply insightful and highly intuitive. He is a skilled and highly regarded practitioner with a strong sense of ethics and values. He has a profound commitment to personal and organizational transformation and can be counted on to be honest, resourceful and supportive. I recommend him highly.

Ken Cloke, Founder Mediators Beyond Borders


Our company has worked with Dave for some time now to a strong positive effect. His coaching style, leadership training, and interpersonal management training have been invaluable to our team in developing strong, implementable, and lasting skills to manage, engage, and communicate positively and effectively. Particularly, his virtual training presentations and webinar sessions such as “Nobody Gets it Right” and “Break Through to Yes” were strong tools that resonated and used to great effect that I highly recommend.

Dave Morrison, Chief Executive Officer, Island Lake Resort Group


I have known David for a few years and asked him to speak to a broad group of industry practitioners in tandem with another speaker who he didn’t know. Not only did David knock the chat out of the park, but his pre-chat collaboration and preparation with his co-speaker clearly demonstrated his keen ability to adapt to any kind of individual. If you are looking to create shared values amongst differing people or groups of people, I would recommend you look at David Savage to do so.

David Milia, Chief Executive Officer, Canadian Energy, and Climate Nexus

The many “aha” moments we had in the sessions combined with the skills you gave us have been transformational.”
