Craig Wortmann - CEO, Clinical Professor, Kellogg School of Management
“David Sandlers are rare. There are great facilitators, great coaches, and great teachers. But there are very few people who are all three. David is one of the rare ones I've had the pleasure of watching up close. He never fails to bring deep insight and empathy in a way that both pulls people towards their own greatness, but also pushes gently when needed. What I have found amazing about David is how his impact starts literally in the first moments of interaction...and then never wanes. His energy is infectious. When people are looking for impact in the room that lasts long after the people have left that room, I point them to David.”
Rachel Delia - Americas App Lead at Google
“David is an outstanding facilitator and coach, who brings a holistic view of meeting and professional success. I highly recommend him for any speaking engagements and coaching sessions.”
William Martino - Chief Commercial Officer, 21GRAMS
“I had the pleasure working with David on a workshop for a high-profile, new product launch where the rivers of thinking were deep and the opinions abundant. We were large, cross-functional (maybe a little dysfunctional?), and from 6 different companies. David broke us down, put us back together again, and helped us walk out of the room with total commitment to our plan — and each other. One thing will always remain with me about that experience: everything we talked about eventually happened — and worked. We didn’t leave with a fairy-tale plan full of fluff that was doomed to sit on a shelf, but ideas that were actionable and business driving. To me, this is a reflection of who David is — inspiring, pragmatic and ruthlessly focused on what matters.”
Aimee Grout - Sr. Enterprise Customer Success Manager, Lucid Software
“David is exceptional at what he does. He’s a smart, empathetic seller with years of experience selling in an evolving, competitive marketplace. His coaching style is rigorous but encouraging, with a healthy dose of interactive discussion, role-playing and humor. David led Google Sales School, teaching me and other new hires how to research customers, understand their business model & financials, create solutions that drive real business impact for customers, tailor communication for all stakeholders including C-suite, handle objections, and have the confidence to close multi-million dollar deals. His approach was positive and solutions-focused. I continue to lean on the skills I learned from him. My fellow Google Sales School alumni and I can’t speak highly enough of our learning experiences with David.”
Yoel Leinwand - Military Veteran and Head of Industry, Google
“In my 24-year career, 12 of which have been at Google, I’ve always thought that I was very effective at running meetings... until I met David and learned that there was plenty of room for improvement for myself and my team. Thanks to David's coaching, we had several “aha” moments and were able to shift our mindset to make customer interactions much more impactful. This has resulted in more effective and efficient meetings, improved sales velocity with a templated approach to pre/post interaction and higher customer satisfaction. David is an amazing coach and I would strongly recommend hiring him to uplevel your team like he did for mine.”
Marissa Karen - Strategy and Insights Manager, Google
“David Sandler is one of a kind. He is an incredible coach and facilitator, who I was lucky enough to work closely with throughout my career at Google. His energy and passion are infectious, and I personally benefited so much from his endless knowledge, actionable feedback, and unwavering support. His love and expertise for developing and growing others is obvious from the moment you meet him, and I feel so lucky to have had the opportunity to learn so much from David.”
Jerome Eymery - Head of Industry (Technology Sector), Google
“I've attended multiple coaching sessions led by David, including a Google Leader Summit where he spoke in front of over 100 Global Leaders; he is one of the best coaches I've had, an incredible mentor and an inspiring public speaker.”
