Well the first time I met David.. I had the privilege of being booted out of a goal setting workshop for turning up late.. Was happy to go back to work then.. But in the hindsight I truly regret having missed that program.. Having worked with David, he is one of those very few trainers who can create the case for change in behaviour post the program.. His genuine interest in personal development and unique delivery makes a compelling appeal to participants to consider trying out the methods of self-development suggested.. He also does not go by just a surface need and is ever willing to dig deep to find out the actual problem / need which also is a very important trait.. Overall definitely among the top notch trainers I have interacted with..

We have been working together for the last 6 months. This is my first experience of having a career coach and he has done full justice to the role. From his first session with our group of 9 members till the last individual discussion i saw consistency in his approach. He was able to educate us on certain concepts which are quite useful and made us experience the same by being constantly in touch with us. He exhibited personal interest in the each individual by going beyond the call of his duty. I had couple of personal coaching sessions with him and in every session he brought out certain insights which had helped to manage by work and life better.

I have had the privilege of attending couple of David's training workshops on EI and leadership. He delivered a lot of excellent content, drawing on his own life/career and came up with a lot of great ideas and takeaways.

David has an extremely focused and well-tuned knowledge of how to supercharge oneself and achieve greater success in all areas of their life through some of his proven strategies.

I would give the program a very high overall rating. The program met my objectives. The session conducted was very useful to my job, with good practical illustrations and stories. David Nair displayed excellent communication skills and his use of words (local catch words) to explain relevant principles anchored those principles in me.

                                                                                                                                                                                                           - Mahesh Petluru

 

David was extremely good as a trainer and demonstrated excellent Interpersonal skills. His approach and the content delivery was very good, apt and to the point and when applied in real life, the benefits would be a thousand fold. These life changing principles would help us improve our personal and professional life.                                                        

                                                                                                                                                                                                                     - T Karthika

 

Powerful communication skills and a superb delivery by the trainer, my greatest take away from today’s session is the Personality Traits. This allows me to have a better understanding of myself and enrich my interactive skills.

                                                                                                                                                                                                           - P Aravinda Babu

 

The program was very useful to my present job. It had very high practical exercises. I loved the illustrations and stories. David is a superb communicator and excellent at building rapport. Though this was not a team building session, the way David conducted this session brought us all together (although we came from different departments and from different locations). He truly built a team in one day, which would take some of us, months or years to do what David consolidated during the course of this session. Hats off to you, David. I now understand how you climbed up the corporate ladder that fast. Well disciplined approach to delivery and learnt a lot on leadership principles which will be handy for my next career move. Thank You, David. Keep on doing this great work. We need people like you here.

I like the way the trainer presented the training topic. After 4 years of professional life, now I come to k now “What is a Team Player?”

When we see how David uses words to describe different things it makes communication a piece of cake (look so simple). His use of idioms and catch words imprints in us the principles taught. I want to master my Communication skills to be as effective a communicator as David. Working through my Personality Assessment did show how much I need to learn to understand myself such that I could interact effectively. Thank You. David. It was just a WOW.

My favourite part was preparation of the Padi field. It truly showed how much we take life for granted. Thank you, David, for delivering such a passionate training session. Listening skills demo was an eye opener for me to sharpening my auditory skills sets.

I have worked with David over the last 4+ years. I first met David as my personal coach when I relocated to India. I had to learn a lot about of workplace culture, and employer-employee expectations in India. After years of education and working in the West, I was glad I could talk to someone who understood the nuances of both the East and West and more importantly how to bridge them. I felt that it is equally important for my direct reports to also understand what the expectations are of their manager.

I engaged David in personally coaching them to bring them up to the required mindset with the right frequency in dealing with expatriates and their subordinated. Those who went through the program found it very useful and in my own assessment there has been a dramatic shift in how they manage their own teams. We have also worked with David in getting new employees, mainly those who joined us right after earning their degrees, go through a preparation program. I have worked with several trainers and coaches over the years and I think David is uniquely placed to bridge cultures and bring the best coaching, mentoring and training experiences.

David has been working with our Organization for over last 5 years. He has been delivering Soft skill/Behavioural training for our staff with and has consistently received very good feedback. He is a committed professional and constantly raises the bar for himself and the class.
