At a recent veteran event, a special operations army medic he hired straight out of Afghanistan in 2008, was quoted saying “Considering all that Dave has done for so many veterans, it would take but a short phone call for him to have a literal army on his front lawn in support of him.
He loved us when nobody else in the corporate world even wanted to know us. So don’t mess with him!” ImPowerQ creates the much needed positive disruption while being an inspiration to work with.
