David describes his leadership style as follows: “I strive to be friendly and accessible; to listen to others, allowing them to fully and frankly express their ideas whether I agree or disagree; to develop confidence and trust with and among others; to seek solutions to problems that are at least acceptable to everyone; and to engage all of my relationships with maturity, dignity and character.  I want to be a pastor who values everyone’s opinion”.
