David Sals is passionate about helping people lead extraordinary lives.
As an executive coach and consultant, David works with managers and executives at all levels to help them navigate professional relationships and increase their reach, influence and perceived value within their organizations, supporting them to become powerful leaders who know how to maximize the potential of their teams.
As a personal coach, David helps clients get beyond their doubts and discouragement to take the leap from “someday, somehow” to living the life they want right now.
As a trainer and facilitator, he creates engaging, interactive workshops that teach teams to collaborate efficiently and effectively, increasing trust and communication across all levels of the organization.
In 2010, David co-founded the SF Behavior Lab, an experimental playground for exploring new leadership and team development methodologies. SF Behavior Lab incorporates tools from motivation theory, game theory, influence psychology and applied improvisation to create workshops that tackle subjects like collaboration, relationship building, influence and public speaking, and presents participants with a fun and easy way to explore these themes and gain valuable insights about themselves and the world around them.
