Select Testimonials
“I wanted to reach out to you and thank you very much for taking time out of your schedule to speak at the eWomen Network luncheon. Your story is very powerful and gives great con rmation to the fact that we all have purpose on earth."
“When Dave Sanderson finished speaking at the LIDMA Annual Conference it was clear that his message was powerful and resonated with everyone in the audience by the standing ovation he received...he is inspiring, motivational, engaging and has a great sense of humor! Dave’s stage presence and presentation style are outstanding for a closing keynote session. I say closing as opening with Dave would simply be a tough act to follow for anyone! Dave is also genuinely a great guy, opening himself to questions and taking the time to interact with event attendees throughout his time there. We highly recommend Dave Sanderson for your next meeting, conference or convention regardless of the industry you are in. His message reaches beyond industries and affirms belief in the human spirit!”
“Dave Sanderson was the perfect addition to our end of year celebration. He was very engaging and an inspiration to everyone. He reminded us all that we have it within ourselves to do great things. Thank you for taking the time to speak to us.”
“Dave Sanderson captivated his audience with his authentic story. He was our speaker in November for our eWomenNetwork networking event. After introducing Dave, I sat in the back of the room and witnessed an engaging presentation about his experience after the plane he was on went down in the Hudson River. All eyes were on him as he gave heroic details and personal connections about those who survived with him after the accident. Dave is an amazing person with a brave heart. He touched our hearts with his own dramatic story of the ‘Miracle on the Hudson’."
“When I was working for the American Red Cross, I asked Dave if he would be our keynote speaker at a major fundraiser. When he said yes, we knew we could anticipate a sold-out event, but I could never have anticipated the effect his inspirational words had on our guests. While he spoke, the usual murmuring came to a complete standstill and you could have heard the proverbial pin drop in the room. Afterwards, so many attendees told me that they found his message to be life-affirming and unforgettable. I highly recommend David to you as a speaker -- yes, he will tell you about what it was like to be part of the Miracle on the Hudson, but that is just the beginning of his story. It is what he learned from that experience and how he has applied what he has learned that will stick with you...and may even inform your own choices.”
“It's nice to see a Miracle on the Hudson and know that part of that miracle was a extraordinary pilot, and another part was a dear friend who even when he could barely function made sure that other people's lives were being saved and supported...”
