Dr. Cook quickly connected with our executives. Through his expert use of storytelling to convey a concept and how it shows up in real life, our executives quickly understood how to apply the information. Dr. Cook is one of the most authentic leadership speakers we have engaged and it is a privilege to call him our partner.
We had to opportunity to have Dr. Cook speak to a group of our advisors. He did a remarkable job relating what we do every day to the mental obstacles his clients have encountered in the sports world. He was able to change the way many of us approach the hurdles we face every day in continuing to grow our business.
My team was absolutely blown away both by Dr. Cook's knowledge and experience but even more by his delivery and obvious passion for helping others grow. I've also been fortunate to witness Dr. Cook interact with Fortune 500 CEO's at an annual golf/leadership event at Pine Valley (number 1 rated golf course in the world) and I know for a fact those executives were equally impressed with his communication skills and added value to their leadership styles.
David Cook is an extraordinarily gifted coach, counselor, speaker and writer who is able to motivate and encourage people like no one I've ever seen. He spoke at our Senior Management meeting last year, and people are still talking about him a year later and the performance enhancing principles he shared. His incredible experience at coaching individuals to achieve peak performance is as relevant and applicable in a business environment as it is to professional athletes. He is a “Picasso”!

Of all the guest speakers we have had over the past 11 years, Dr. Cook by far was the best in relating to our audience with his message. He inspired many of our customers that day and we have had more positive feedback about this speaker than any other.

His input to our team contributed significantly to these accomplishments. I am confident that David could prove to be a worthwhile resource for your organization.
Dr. Cooks presentation to our leadership team was special. He is a man that we not only tremendously admire, but highly recommended to any organization looking to strengthen their management teams approach to achieving goals.
