YOUR GOALS ARE PERSONAL.

SO IS THE WAY YOU REACH THEM.

Get-a-G.R.I.P. uses the Gallup CliftonStrengths Assessment and experienced, personal coaching to help individuals and teams understand what they naturally do best, then put those strengths to work toward goals that matter.

Whether you’re pursuing something personally, leading an organization, serving a church, or building a life together, the process begins with the same question:

What would you or your team like to achieve?

SCHEDULE A CONVERSATION:

  • Individuals

    Build confidence and direction around what you naturally do best.

  • Couples

    Understand how your different strengths can complement rather than compete.

  • Leadership Teams

    Turn a collection of individual talents into stronger communication, collaboration, and performance.

  • Churches

    Align the strengths of your leadership team around a shared mission.

Individual Coaching

STOP TRYING TO SUCCEED LIKE SOMEONE ELSE.

You may already know what you want. The harder question is often how you are uniquely equipped to get there.

The Gallup CliftonStrengths Assessment reveals the natural patterns of thinking, influencing, relating, and executing that come most naturally to you. Coaching helps turn that knowledge into something practical.

Together, we’ll clarify the goal you want to pursue, understand the strengths you bring to it, and build a plan around the way you naturally operate best.

THIS MAY BE FOR YOU IF…

  • You know you’re capable of more, but feel stuck.

  • You want greater clarity or confidence.

  • You’re facing a transition or important decision.

  • You spend too much energy trying to improve weaknesses.

  • You have a goal but aren’t sure of the best way to pursue it.

Couples Coaching

Different doesn’t have to mean divided.

The qualities that initially attract two people to one another can sometimes become the very differences that cause frustration later.

CliftonStrengths gives couples a new language for understanding those differences.

Instead of asking, “Why aren’t you more like me?”, you can begin asking, “What strength do you bring that I don’t?”

Phil helps couples understand how each person naturally thinks, responds, relates, and gets things done, then explore how those differences can become complementary assets as they pursue goals together.

Your strengths don’t have to match to work beautifully together.

Companies & Leadership Teams Coaching

GREAT TEAMS AREN’T BUILT BY MAKING EVERYONE ALIKE.

They’re built by understanding what makes each person exceptionally different.

Every leadership team already contains a mix of talents. The challenge is recognizing those strengths, understanding where they exist across the team, and learning how to use them intentionally.

Get-a-G.R.I.P. coaching uses a Team Strength Grid map of each team member’s leading CliftonStrengths, creating a visual picture of the talent available across your organization.

This gives leaders a way to see…

  • Where the team is naturally strong

  • Where different people can complement one another

  • Who may be best equipped for particular responsibilities

  • Where communication or collaboration can improve

  • How individual strengths can support shared organizational goals

Engagements can include:

Leadership coaching
Individual or small-group work with executives and leaders.

Team strengths workshops
Understand the strengths across a team and how they interact.

Team retreats
Use strengths alongside organizational goals to create a more intentional plan forward.

Training & speaking
Strengths-based sessions for larger groups, conferences, or company gatherings.

Church Leadership Coaching

YOUR STAFF WASN’T DESIGNED TO BE ALIKE.

A church staff can share the same mission while bringing very different strengths to the work.

Understanding those differences can help leaders move from frustration or unclear responsibilities toward greater appreciation, collaboration, and alignment.

Through CliftonStrengths and team coaching, Phil helps church leaders identify the talents already present on their staff, visualize those strengths across the team, and consider how each person can contribute most effectively toward the church’s goals.

A shared mission doesn’t require identical strengths. It requires learning how different strengths can serve that mission together.

Possible engagements:

  • Leadership-team strengths assessment

  • Staff workshops

  • Leadership retreats

  • Individual coaching

  • Strength-grid development and discussion

How it works

01 — DISCOVER

Understand what you naturally do best.

Begin with the Gallup CliftonStrengths Assessment to identify the talents and patterns that come most naturally to you.


02 — INTERPRET

Understand what those strengths mean for your situation.

An assessment gives you information. Coaching helps you recognize how those strengths are actually showing up in your life, work, team, or relationship.


03 — APPLY

Put your strengths to work toward a goal that matters.

Refine the goal, intentionally bring your strengths into the process, and build a practical way forward.

your goal. your strengths. your coach.

Get-a-G.R.I.P. brings all three together.
