Recently, Michael walked me through the Leadership Circle Assessment. It was extremely helpful! Michael knows how to extract the best from people. Through a blend of introspective and challenging questions and experiences, he helped me gain personal and ministry momentum. What I hoped to happen was exceeded by what has actually happened within me and in my ministry setting.

Dave is the author of an award-winning book on culture and the church called The Monkey and the Fish: Liquid Leadership for a Third-Culture Church and the new release Xealots: Defying the Gravity of Normal.
