Leadership Consulting
offered by The Rev. Tim Geoffrion, Ph.D.

It’s lonely at the top. One of the hardest things for many leaders is feeling as if they have no one to talk to. Often there is no one with whom they share their deepest fears and concerns. There’s no one with whom they can dream and bounce off their radical ideas without causing a stir among staff, Board members, or other constituents.
It’s also hard to find others who truly understand the full range of feelings and the types of concerns that come from having the buck stop with you. Where do you go to find perspective? Where do you go for support? Where do you go for creative ideas, practical management decisions, wisdom for troubleshooting sticky personnel issues? Where do you go to talk about how you are changing, growing, and envisioning your own future, without risking your authority and ability to lead effectively?
After spending years on the staff of churches of various sizes, as senior pastor of a small church, and executive director of a multi-million dollar nonprofit ministry, I have learned a great deal about effective leadership—some from successes, some from learning from others, and a lot from missteps, failures, and wrong turns. I’ve also developed a great deal of empathy for fellow leaders, who are struggling to make the most of their leadership opportunity. Now that I have turned my attention to full time teaching, coaching and consulting, I’m in a unique position to walk with other leaders to help them to realize their God-given dreams and fulfill their purpose in life more effectively.
Leadership Consulting complements Spiritual Life Coaching by focusing attention on specific challenges and issues that a leader is addressing. I offer consulting in conjunction with coaching over an extended period of time, or separately on a session by session basis. By drawing on my expertise in Christian-based leadership and my pastoral skills, I offer knowledgeable perspective, meaningful support, and practical guidance to help others flourish as leaders. In turn, the guidance and support I offer to leaders is intended to help their ministries and organizations to become more healthy and fruitful.
In choosing consulting clients, I give priority to pastors, nonprofit leaders, and other Christian people of influence, who want to exercise their leadership gifts in ways that feel better and serve the mission of their organization more effectively.
My particular areas of expertise include:
• spiritual depth and vitality
• spiritual leadership
• nonprofit management
