David was very effective while at The Naval Academy, both professionally & personally influencing many toward greater effectiveness & maturity as leaders. We worked together within The Navigator Ministry to Midshipmen... an "above & beyond" investment of his time, after working hours. I heartily recommend Dave as a developer of Leaders. TOM BOURKE

I studied with Dave Nelson at the University of Michigan and recall him to be a serious, inquisitive, conscientious, hard-working student. Both my husband and I have remained in close contact with Dave through the years and consider him an extremely close family friend whom we trust deeply and esteem highly. While Dave continues to exhibit the inquisitive, conscientious, hard-working nature that I observed during his student days, I have also found him to be dependable, insightful, even-tempered, good-humored, patient, and wise.
