Executive and Personal Coaching

We provide telephone based Appreciative Coaching for clergy, executives, and people who wish to:

  • clarify their own mission and purpose
  • honor and live their values
  • set personal and professional goals
  • learn and implement new leadership or ministry skills
  • find meaningful authentic careers
  • develop action plans
  • resolve obstacles to success
  • develop personal and professional integration and balance
  • use their spiritual resources and understanding in their coaching

Just in Time Coaching

Many times we don't know what it is that we need to know until we are in the midst of a situation. This is especially true for clergy who may face very different demands going from one congregational setting to another. Coaching is an ideal way to get collaborative support and learning as you need it. In the appreciative coaching relationship you will discover and develop your own unique strengths and ways of meeting the challenges of daily life and ministry.

Our Coaching Agenda

We don't believe it is possible to be agenda free in any aspect of life, including coaching. Part of our agenda is not to impose our agenda on our clients. We also want you to make an informed decision about coaching so you can read our agenda before making a decision to get coaching from us.

Coaching is not Psychotherapy

Note: Coaching is not an alternative to psychotherapy. In the coaching process we describe some of the differences between psychotherapy and coaching. We do not provide psychotherapy by telephone.

What Participants Say

Rob's appreciative coach training helped me to rethink the way I approach and provide therapy; Thanks!
Dr. George Moses, Pastoral Counselor

Rob will enhance your ability to delight in yourself, your neighbor and God through his insightful, practical, loving, professionally grounded, appreciative and often mischievous coaching and teaching skills; and that will make you a better leader and citizen in God's creation.
Ed Leidel, Episcopal Bishop and Congregational Coach in the Canadian Diocese of Huron

After 45 years in the pastoral ministry and attending three events led by Rob Voyle, I have finally learned a better way to help church leaders help themselves and the people they serve.
John Wilkerson, Director: Church Leadership Coaching & Consulting

Rob's combination of organizational savvy, teaching skills, theological & spiritual integration, and ability to rapidly build supportive, learning communities is quite simply the best in any of the churches today.
