Dave is one the best leaders I have worked with in my career.  Dave listens extremely well and is a very fine gentleman.  He is very thoughtful and analytical in his decision making, caring about all stakeholders and creative in many ways.  He conducts with the highest level of ethics and integrity.

 I have known Dave McCreery for over ten years. He is the most creative, ethical, hard working individual I have ever had the pleasure to work with. His commitment to seeing a challenge all the way through goes hand in hand with his ability to make the final result better than expected. He is a tireless leader who always finds a way to make things happen where most others would fail. His enthusiasm is contagious and his approach always sincere. My appreciation of Dave’s many talents is matched only by the enormous respect I have for him. Dave is a true winner!
