Every engagement is customized to your team’s specific goals – no standard packages, no off-the-shelf curriculum.

Every organization has talented people who don’t always sound as capable as they are. That gap shows up as:

• Nervous, hesitant presenters who undersell their own expertise
• Filler words and rambling that dilute a strong message
• A lack of confidence that reads as a lack of authority
• Weak storytelling that fails to land with clients, investors, or leadership
• Poor active listening that derails meetings and negotiations
• Difficulty pitching ideas or handling tough objections
• Teams that tell the company story inconsistently, depending on who’s talking
• Leaders who know their people are capable of showing up at a higher level – but haven’t had the training to get there

Dave’s team training is built to close exactly these gaps – not with theory, but with repetition, performance, and real feedback.

Every engagement begins with a conversation – not a proposal. Dave takes the time to understand your team’s specific goals, upcoming communication moments, and the gaps that are getting in the way. From there, every program is built around three things: the right format, the right components, and a room that never feels like a lecture.

Choose the format that fits your team:

• In-Person Team Intensive – A high-energy, hands-on session at your office or an offsite location. Your team is on their feet from the start.
• Virtual Cohort / Program – The same interactive, performance-based approach delivered over Zoom or your preferred platform, across multiple sessions – ideal for distributed teams or ongoing development.
• Corporate Retreat – Bring Dave in as part of a leadership offsite. High-energy facilitation that engages a room, builds team dynamics, and leaves people talking about it long after the retreat ends.

• Group training – Live, interactive, and performance-based. Your team works through real scenarios and gets immediate coaching and feedback.
• Individual 1:1 sessions – Focused coaching for specific team members preparing for high-stakes moments – media appearances, investor pitches, keynotes, or board meetings.
• Video review and feedback – Participants record practice sessions and receive detailed written and verbal feedback directly from Dave.
• Pre-event strategy calls – A planning call with your team’s point person before training begins, so the program is built around exactly what your team needs – not a generic curriculum.
• Post-session support – Ongoing access to Dave after training to reinforce progress and prepare for what’s next.

There’s no standard package and no off-the-shelf curriculum – engagements can be a single intensive session or structured across weeks or months, whatever serves your team best.

In-person training available throughout South Florida and nationwide. Virtual training available via Zoom or your preferred platform.

Dave isn’t a communications consultant who read a book on public speaking. He spent 25+ years live on camera – hosting Nickelodeon’s Slime Time Live, interviewing thousands of guests, thinking on his feet in real time with no script and no do-overs.

That’s the energy he brings into every training room. Sessions include:

✓ Multiple hands-on performances by every participant – not just one person up front

✓ Improv-based exercises that build confidence, spontaneity, and quick thinking

✓ Real-time coaching and feedback, delivered the way a TV producer coaches a host between takes

✓ An entertaining, high-energy room that keeps people engaged from start to finish

This isn’t another boring training day your team will forget by Friday.

Communication isn’t a soft skill. It’s a business driver.

The data is clear:

• Companies with strong communicators see up to 47% higher total returns to shareholders (McKinsey)
• Teams that communicate effectively are 25-35% more productive in high-stakes cross-functional work (Towers Watson/McKinsey)
• Organizations that invest in communication training see 250%+ ROI through increased productivity and reduced turnover (MIT Sloan/Harvard)

The question isn’t whether communication training pays off. It’s whether your team is getting it.

“If you’re in need of an expert media trainer and/or professional public speaking teacher then Dave is the choice for you. Dave knows how to make your SPOX comfortable, confident and prepared to maximize the opportunity, each and every time!” – SCOTT GOLDBERG, EVP & Managing Director, Carve Comms 

Every engagement starts with a conversation. Tell Dave what your team is working on – an upcoming conference, a media opportunity, a sales push, or simply a desire to communicate more effectively across the board – and he’ll build a program around it.
