Chapters
I'm Professor Alan Parker. Every now and again you come up to somebody in life and you think, this is somebody I need to pay attention to. This is somebody who has intrinsic wisdom about the selection of what they say. Some of us have to talk out loud to get the clarity around what we want. But David Price has this extraordinary capacity to take a complex concept, a complex amount of information from a person or a group and deliver the most clean, crisp, concise, insightful perspectives and points of view. As a professional presenter myself, I would hold David in the highest of regard as somebody who understands the mechanics and the science and the art of the platform skills and the platform crafts of a great presenter. I would certainly put David up amongst the best that I have worked with. As a human being, he has this delightful mixture of professional credibility, tenacious— he's got a pioneering edge without bashing the boundaries. And masterfully skillful in both managing an audience that he's working with or instilling the skills in somebody else who isn't his mastery. But he very quickly has the ability to put some of the magical skills that he possesses himself into people that he works with. Has a somewhat hawk-like quality about him. He just seems to be able to watch a room and knows what's going on. He's got a mind that tracks and accommodates lots of perspectives, and in a bigger group setting has this quite delightful capacity to be able to pull multiple differing perspectives together and find a a common place for them all to be and have their own value and worth. A unique quality that not many group facilitators are able to do. And in fact, few people bring together the craft of presenting and teaching people how to present, be that to an audience, be that to a camera, be that to a meeting. Few people have the skill to do that that David Price has. Additionally, I call David one of the facilitators of life. He's just constantly facilitating. He networks beautifully. He weaves people together. His adept capacity to be able to link and join people in conversation is quite unique. As a professional facilitator and presenter, there are not many times that I'd be called upon to recommend somebody who I would do it with such certainty, with such clarity around that he will live to the recommendation that I've provided. I recommend David to you very highly. Thank you.
