Dave Faulise was a professional consultant for more than 40 years. He started consulting with Price Waterhouse, later moved to KPMG where he became a partner, and then co-founded his own practice, Faulise, Janda & Docherty. His clients represent a broad range of industries including banking, insurance, financial services, health care, mining, manufacturing, distribution, retail, wholesale, government and education.
