Helping Faith Leaders Thrive As Change Leaders

Individual Coaching

Every leader needs a coach. Every one. Especially when you are trying to lead deep change.

Our experienced professional coaches walk alongside you. We make you and your team more confident in a changing world.

Group coaching is a small cohort of 6 leaders who meet together for four monthly sessions to discuss their own case studies in adaptive change with a certified AESL coach.

Group Coaching

Executive Team Coaching 

Our coaching for Executive Teams includes a monthly session with the team and individual monthly session for each member of the team.  This combine coaching approach accelerates the whole team's capacity to lead effectively

  • Are you or your team stuck in the middle of a particularly difficult adaptive challenge? Would you just like to get some time with an experienced coach to “get up on the balcony”; with you and help you better name and navigate the real-time problem?

    Our experienced coaches are available for one-off 90-minute sessions where they will guide you through the Adaptive Change process for helping you get unstuck and identify next steps for facing your adaptive challenges.

Our Why Behind Coaching 


Our approach, inspired by principles in Canoeing the Mountains: Leadership in Uncharted Territory” and “Tempered Resilience: How Leaders are Formed in the Crucible of Change”, involves self-reflection within a trusted relationship, developing new leadership skills, discernment, leading the learning, and developing new strategies and capacities for facing your biggest challenges.

This enables you to lead a process of corporate transformation to face your biggest challenges.

Client Testimonials:

  • My coach helped me immensely to learn how to differentiate myself from my organization, and empower other leaders in my organization to take responsibility for themselves and their own leadership."

    - Dr. Corey Widmer, Senior Pastor, Third Presbyterian Church, Richmond Virginia

  • "As my coach and I renew our third contract together, I wanted to say thank you again for recommending her. Sometimes she is a spiritual director, sometimes a therapist, and sometimes a leadership coach and I have needed all three as I began this ministry and as we have lived in the midst of a pandemic. Such a gift. Thank you."

  • "My coaching relationship has had a tremendous impact in my life, both personally and professionally. I was able to internalize some leadership skills in a way that shaped me as a person and also as a leader. Therefore, the impact has been significant in multiple areas of my life. My coach has a keen ability to ask questions that unstick cumbersome leadership challenges. With AESL, you’ll have an advocate and champion as you grow as a leader."

  • "In my first year of a new call, I knew I needed something but wasn’t exactly sure what it was or what it might look like. You provided the framework, the space and the tools to help me navigate the transition with as much grace and joy as possible. You will always have a BIG FAN in me and please let me know if there is ever another way I could express my gratitude for what you did for me. "

  • “Coaching with AE Sloan Leadership increased my self-awareness of my leadership in change management, making me more reflective and less reactive.”
