David
McCann has been working with people to
help them bring out their best for most all of his adult life.
Following 10 years of teaching in the Public School system in
Quebec, David was trained and became a Salvation Army Officer where
he served in a varied assortment of roles for 28 years before taking
an early retirement. During his years of service David has been a
pastor, church planter, denomination executive, editor, director of
Pastoral training, and Regional Director of Church programs for the
Salvation Army.
In 1998 he began actively
coaching Salvation Army leaders. In 2005, as an assignment for the
Executive Leadership course given by Simon Fraser University, David
and a co-worker from the neighbouring Salvation Army district
developed a course for training coaches and establishing coaching
networks.
Besides working within his own
denomination, David has been an active participant on the Executive
of Church Planting Canada, and its regional expression CIEQ (Comité
d’implantation d’églises au Québec).
In retirement, David continues
his teaching and preaching ministry, but has also established
himself as a resource for Churches and Church leaders in Quebec, and
beyond. He currently is owner of David McCann, Coaching, and also
works in areas of consultation, translation, and as a trainer and
coach in Emotional Intelligence.
David is married, and with his wife Susan, has two sons.
