“David Eckoff is a cannonball of energy, delivering passion and engagement through his presentations. He moves through a deep knowledge of his subject material but delivers his message conversationally, with a professionalism that borders on Zen. But most of all, and this is where David Eckoff earns my highest marks, David Eckoff is the kind of speaker who stays embedded in the community and interacts with the crowd. Mr. Eckoff is a boon to any conference that values itself as speaking truth, not fantasy.
