We help GREAT leaders with an outside PERSPECTIVE.
Our approach is relational. Connect a trusted advisor to your leadership journey, one who is committed to solving your problems and won’t quit until you get results. WE ARE ALL IN.
Our process has been trench-tested and brings real change. The first stage ends with PERSPECTIVE, a leader’s accurate view of the past, present, and what the future looks like if nothing changes. The second stage ends with a PLAN, tailored to your unique ministry context. The final stage is all about PROGRESS as you fulfill your mission.
Our clients are exceptional. We work with leaders who have GREAT DREAMS because they know God has GREAT PLANS.
I’ve served as a …
high school ministry intern, high school ministry pastor, student ministry pastor, family ministry pastor, associate pastor, pastor of regional campuses, pastor of ministry (CLASS 301, SHAPE), pastor of discipleship, pastoral management team (Saddleback), teaching pastor (not at Saddleback!), and executive pastor.
I’m married to Misha! We met on a church mission trip to Mexico. We’ve been married for 30 years, and we have five kids—all boys! Two of them are in college, and three are in high school. I graduated from Azusa Pacific University with degrees in Biblical Studies and Psychology. To give back to the community, I’m a head coach for youth football. For fun, I’m an average woodworker and below average gamer.
Mike has spent the last 29 years as an Organizational Leader, including the last 15 as the Lead of a large non-profit in Seattle, WA.

Having logged over 10,000 hours of Public Speaking, Mike has coached (both in one on one settings and from the stage) hundreds and thousands of leaders.
Mike’s primary focus: senior pastors, executives, upper management, middle-management, sales leaders, teams, business owners, doctors, orthodontists, non-profit leaders, and individuals seeking to live in victory.
