After climbing the corporate ladder at companies like Loblaws and Shoppers Drug Mart, David found himself trapped in the pursuit of bigger titles and salaries – working long hours while his wife raised their four young children. Everything changed when a mission trip to Mexico sparked a spiritual awakening that completely transformed his understanding of success.
Perhaps most compelling is David's evolved understanding of leadership effectiveness. Drawing from spiritual principles, he demonstrates that caring deeply for people and maintaining high performance expectations aren't mutually exclusive. This balanced approach allows leaders to motivate teams toward excellence while building genuinely supportive relationships.
