Praise for CO-CREATE

“After reading Relationship Economics and Return on Impact, I heard David Nour speak at ASAE, hired him to advise my last association, coach me in the transition to a new association, and more recently work with me, our leadership team, and board on our strategic path forward. David Nour has done it again. CO-CREATE is the definitive guide if you want to think and lead differently.”
