“First and foremost, I enjoyed getting to know you a bit personally and respect your inclination to tell me ‘who you are’ and not just ‘what you do’. I also truly enjoyed hearing the Merryck & Co. story from the author himself. You’re building the mold with Merryck, in an exciting new space. Despite what the internet boomers believed, creating industries and sectors are rare feats, few and far between. Your enthusiasm for the company and the service is only matched by your success. A parallel that is not accidental. ”

“Recently, I had the opportunity to listen to David Carter speak at a CEO business mentor training session. As a true expert on ‘The CEO’, David would be remiss not to write a book on this subject. Until this occurs, we can only be so fortunate to hear him speak on this area. His experience, genuine passion and zeal in sharing his expertise on ‘CEOs’ are not only impressive, they are contagious.”

Principal and Chairman, The Elmwood Group

I asked David Carter to speak at our annual global conference to the topic of Personal Leadership. He fulfilled the brief superbly. David has a wonderfully human style which communicates powerful messages with a combination of personal anecdotes and insights from working with business leaders over many years. David is not the typical speaker who appears on the conference circuit - he genuinely cares about the message he is conveying and the audience he is speaking to. He made a real impression on my team and I couldn’t recommend him highly enough.

“I recently saw David Carter speak at the CTT International Conference in Noordwijk, Holland. He was the only speaker who spoke without reliance on notes or PowerPoint slides, and he did it with in an easy, confident style that clearly engaged the audience. What struck me about David is that he spoke with credibility, authenticity and passion. He has a rare gift of mixing business acumen and heartfelt generosity of spirit.”

“When an expert performs it looks so simple and therein lies his genius. And what David Carter did in his five and half hours presentation is nothing short of genius – a complicated concept was conveyed with such ease! I gained immensely from this, and honestly feel that I am going to be much better after attending his presentation.”

“David Carter’s comments at the Whole System Change Summit dinner, regarding the ‘war for talent’ and broken business models really stuck with me. I admire and respect who he is and the depth of wisdom and sincerity in what he says.
David has honed an exceptional ability to listen. His listening is quietly active. It seems to shape and deepen conversation, even when you are saying nothing. It is really brilliant. Finally, the alignment between what David says, who he is and everything I have seen of his business is exceptional. It speaks of deep reflection and consistent integrity of action.”
Morel Fourman
CEO, Gaiasoft

“I invited David Carter to serve as a keynote speaker for the second International Congress of Management based in Values held in Caracas in July 2006. David’s speech was titled “What Makes a Successful Business Leader”. His speech was engaging and received an excellent evaluation from participants. In a comprehensive and explicit presentation to a multicultural corporate audience exceeding 200 senior executives, David presented the multiple aspects associated with different leadership styles and the contributing factors to leadership success and failure.”

President, Creating C.A.

“Our firm had the pleasure of having David Carter present at our November 2006 Lane4 Consultant Conference. We thoroughly enjoyed his engaging presentation and candid responses during the subsequent Q&A. His insight into the “world of the CEO” and mentoring CEOs, provided a great stimulus for lively conversations that continued
through the remainder of the day and thereafter. As consultants ourselves, we particularly admired the conversational style of his presentation and his openness. Speaking without notes and slides to distract him, David’s session came across more like a lively discussion rather than a canned presentation. This contributed to the high level of energy and valuable contribution from participants attending this session.”
