Dicono di me (come coach)
”David ha uno stile discreto, empatico, orientato al coachee. Un coach che sa ascoltare, rilanciare e dare fiducia all’evoluzione del percorso. La presenza di David ha un’elevata qualità…ho sentito il suo esserci…” Rosella E. – 14/7/2023 |
”I experienced David as someone who is extremely authentic and open to being vulnerable while exploring difficult / personal topics. I believe his deep experience in coaching coupled with his psychotherapy background has helped him build a strong sense of self-awareness and growth orientation. His strong solution focus and his understanding of the foundations of change-work made him one of the most self-coachable coachees I have worked with!! I thoroughly enjoyed the process of coaching David and it was so fulfilling to see the shifts in energy and momentum towards the end.” Rajeshwari M. – 29/3/2023 |
”David has a particular gift for listening for the essence of what the client is saying and offering it back to the client in a way that I found incredibly powerful. I particularly appreciated David’s ability to help me use my metaphors to move me forward towards my goals. As a result of coaching with David, I gained new insights into real challenges I was facing. David asked me questions I had not asked myself before, which gave me pause to reflect deeply and access what was truly most important to me. If you are seeking a coach who compassionately and effectively challenges your status quo thinking to reveal deeper insights, I highly recommend David.” Rachel D. – 23/1/2023 |

”David has a very supportive manner. Warm but direct. He instils trust, and you sense he cares strongly about you as a whole person He asked me powerful and direct questions about my balance in life, and the choices I was facing. Despite asking me sometimes challenging questions, there was always a caring manner. And a sense of humour. As a coach myself, I learnt the power of focused uncluttered direct questions. He helped me get to the heart of the matter very skillfully I had an issue of whether to enroll for a full-time language course or not, in the face of seeming opposition from my wife to this course of action. He helped me see fresh perspectives to this issue, and to discuss it with my wife in a fully transparent and authentic manner, and this helped enormously for me to resolve the matter” Douglas S. – 27/9/2018 |

”David è sfidante e accogliente. Ti senti pronto a progredire di volta in volta. Nonostante involontariamente io tendessi a divagare David mi teneva sul pezzo. Inoltre sentivo che a volte riusciva a toccare i punti giusti per farmi fare passi da gigante. L’importanza di lavorare “Nel Presente”. Sopratutto quando divagavo mi metteva in contatto con questa cosa, non me la faceva semplicemente notare. Ad ogni sessione ho portato un argomento diverso: il mio obiettivo generale era far chiarezza nella mia vita analizzando diverse situazioni nelle quali non ero molto allineato. Dallo Sport, alla vita privata a quella professionale…sento di aver fatto dei passi da gigante. Con quelle 2-3 domande per ogni sessione David mi ha dato modo di disambiguare diversi aspetti della mia vita. Un’esperienza che rifarei.” Marco S. – 19/11/2016 |
”David is relaxed but thorough. He appreciates what his client does and says, and helps to push a little bit further. His questioning leads to unexpected revelations which help give clarity and stimulate action taking. David helped me put into proper perspective what my different projects require. I gained clarity on the relative immediacy of items in terms of time line and in terms of passion. In addition, David helped me see my own kind of passion in doing things I previously dreaded, so that now I can proceed with a more positive outlook and expectation.” Susan N. – 23/9/2016 |
”As previously mentioned about the skills and experiences while being coached by David were invaluable. Notwithstanding another friend/coach in another country.” Davie C. – 27/11/2015 |
”David’s coaching style is perceptive, curious, intuitive, gentle, skillful, generative and positive. I found him to be in many ways the most highly-skilled coach I’ve worked with in my two years with Reciprocoach yet he didn’t draw attention to himself in our sessions. He invariably respected where I was and worked with me from there, Through powerful questioning, an intuitive sensibility and his adept navigation of the undercurrents of our sessions he framed and held my discovery and learning process with a keen sense of the larger picture while being wholly in the present moment so that I felt energized as I gained valuable insight. ” Dana J. – 1/2/2015 |
”David brings a sense of tranquility with his coaching. This enabled me to slow down and take the time to think and reflect on the issues that were important to me. He was able to remove the pressure of time during our sessions which greatly helped ” Gaye K. – 19/5/2014 |
”David has a wonderful capacity to be both gentle and tough as a coach. He subtly probes and very often “hit the nail on the head” without my noticing” Toni B. – 10/3/2013 |
”His style is very client friendly, supportive and encouraging. He is able to build trust with his client in a very short period of time. He always created an environment of openness which allows clients to say whatever they want to say. David teaches me how to enjoy the process of doing as well. Now I am more relaxed and enjoy the process more instead of just focus on the result.” Monica S. – 8/4/2012 |
