Every leader has to deal with fear. Fear of folding, of falling behind, of failing. After I bought a family business, fear drove a lot of my decision making. Dave helped me conquer that fear. His approach — tough, but caring — helped me build the confidence I needed to brandish for my business to succeed. Now I focus on opportunities instead of obstacles, and my business is thriving for it. In short, hire this man and don’t look back. You won’t regret it.

Dave Nettina and I have worked closely together for almost 6 years. He is more than a business coach, he is a business benediction! Operating with him has transformed my company from more than I ever thought possible. Dave’s approach is intuitive, intelligent and creative. As a coach, he is readily available and willing to answer even seemingly tiny questions. Always offering strong opinions and insight backed by real world experience, Dave understands the complexities and nuances of building a new business. I could not have doubled my revenue each year for the past four years without him! Thank you Dave for being a true rock star!

Dave Nettina came into my life in a time when I was navigating the transition from President to CEO/ Business Owner. I lacked the support and knowledge to level up in my role. I desperately needed guidance and a sound advisor to help lead me through the challenges I was facing. I took the leap and joined Dave’s Vistage team and enrolled in his coaching. In the 3 years since that decision I have transformed my business and my life. The positive impact of the team and the strong (no sugar coating) opinions of Dave have enabled me to stabilize my own leadership team, grow my business, and expand my views of what is possible in this lifetime. Dave will be a part of my strategy for success for as long as I decide to play this game.
