Dennis D. Pointer & Associates
Denny
is one of the Nation’s most prominent and highly regarded governance
consultants; he's been at it for over 20 years and for the last 10 averaged more than 125,000 air
miles working with a wide variety of clients.
Deciding to slow-down, focus on writing projects plus spending more time with his two grandchildren and riding his motorcycle, Denny has cut back his travel schedule significantly. Wanting to “keep his hand in the game,” he continues to accept a few selected board retreat facilitation and speaking engagements.

“Many thanks for the great job you did at our Annual Conference in Williamsburg … the participants gave you the best rating of all our speakers … we want you to join us next year. I know you are happy in Seattle for all the right reasons, but selfishly wish you were still here in Virginia.” Larry Sartoris, President; Virginia Hospital Association.
“Your session, ‘Building Better Boards and Board Relationships’ at our VHA Leadership Conference in Chicago was rated among the very best of over 50 sessions with 2400 attendees … 4.87 (speaker) and 4.83 (content) out of a possible 5!!! We seldom see evaluations this high.” Sue Adams, Director - Education; VHA, Inc. (Irving, Texas).
“Thanks so much for conducting a wonderful board retreat. Your facilitation and speaking skills (use of imagery, stories, illustrations and anecdotes) is incredible. I don’t think anything could have been better. The retreat exceeded everyone’s expectations.” Jean Haskell, Senior Vice President; Emanuel Medical Center (Turlock, California).
