Bio
Dan Sullivan
I had the pleasure of working with David at both Constellation and NextEra Energy. David is a true Digital Native with unsurpassed knowledge of Digital Marketing and Digital Business Models. David is able to take that deep knowledge and turn it into getting things done that make a positive impact on the business. David is also a strong leader who builds and manages high performing teams. During our recent time together, starting up a brand new digital native business unit for NextEra Energy. I witnessed first handed on how David built a team of top digital talents from scratch, led the team to re-built a digital platform in fewer than a couple months, and simultaneously established a comprehensive digital go-to-market strategy. He also put in a robust analytical capability and institute the culture of the continuous experiment that enables our team to practice growth hacking. It is truly amazing to see David in action. He led with passion and makes difficult things look so easy. David is one of these rare leaders with knowledge and skills span across technology and business, who not only can think of big ideas but can also execute, and most importantly, who genuinely understand and appreciate the effort of his team. I never see David asks his team to do things himself won't do. It was truly a pleasure work with David, and I would highly recommend David for any Digital Leadership role for organizations trying to build their digital market presence.

I have recruited David to work with me in two different organizations leading Digital teams and each time he has outperformed my expectations. No matter what task he is assigned, he finds a way to win. On one occasion, I set an aspirational goal to double Digital conversion for a multi-billion-dollar organization. I thought it was a lofty goal that we could only hit if everything fell into place perfectly. Everything did not fall into place perfectly, but through David’s creativity, inspiration, flexibility, leadership and pure will to win he led the team to nearly triple our conversion rate. He is a pleasure to be around and truly cares about his team as well as his work. In addition, he is a great speaker. I asked David to lead several informational/training sessions for my team which was comprised of hundreds of Sales, Marketing, Digital and Customer Experience leaders. They were not an easy audience, which anyone who speaks to Sales teams can attest to. He did a phenomenal job and in surveys sent out afterward he would generally get higher feedback scores than my own presentations. He is funny, caring and someone you can count on. I recommend David without hesitation.
