Pursuit
Consulting
& COACHING
After nearly four decades operating in numerous business leadership roles, I have felt the calling to establish Pursuit Coaching & Consulting as a platform to contribute and engage with non-profit organizations. Philanthropic pursuits are ultimately a function of people and talent similar to large enterprises and require familiar matters of responsibility like setting culture, positioning people, clarifying roles, organizing priorities and executing effectively.
Consulting
What it is
The areas of particular focus in the non-profit eco-system are development, marketing and strategic planning consultation. I come alongside your organization with strategic thinking and energy to prompt new thinking and solutions that you create to enable growth.
How it works
I join your leadership team for a season, working directly with leaders and their people teams focused on targeted outcomes that address the matters of the organization.
The results
An organization that is unified around a common mission and plan poised to deliver against a set of targeted and focused outcomes.
Let’s build something great together.
Mission
I believe we each desire to identify with a purpose and Pursuit is founded to enable people and organizations to discover their purpose in our work and life journey. We do not do life alone and you will often hear me say life is a team sport. As a man of faith my Team Captain is our LORD and Pursuit Consulting & Coaching is anchored in the words of 1 Chronicles 16:11… Seek the Lord and his strength; seek his presence continually.
I welcome the opportunity to engage and pursue your ambitions together.
