At age 11, David Greenberg started his career as a door-to-door salesperson, selling burglar alarm warning stickers to people who could not afford a real system. At age 16, he became known as "The Peep-Hole Boy" of Ft. Lauderdale. When he knocked on your door and you asked, "Who is it?" David replied, "If you had a peep-hole, you would know!" For $10 David would drill a hole in your door and your problems were solved.
David learned about life in the corporate world as an award-winning employee at IBM and BellSouth. He honed his teaching skills as an instructor at Oglethorpe University in Atlanta and as the highest rated instructor at the American Management Association. He knows how to help others communicate and is the winner of the Toastmasters International Speech Evaluation State Championship.
